To make these rolls I used a jar of

Slow Cooker Maple Pumpkin Butter.

Slow Cooker Maple Pumpkin Butter! Enjoy as a spread for breakfast or stirred into oatmeal, yogurt, or with pancakes and waffles for a seasonal fall treat. #slowcooker #crockpot #pumpkinspice

It’s ready in a couple of hours after simmering in your slow cooker.

It makes a delicious spread for your morning toast,

  stirred into oatmeal, yogurt, pancake or waffle batter.

Your house will smell wonderful while it’s simmering away too!

Feel free to use a store brand of pumpkin butter for the convenience.

I think any of these fruit butters would be delicious.

Apple butter would be wonderful too if you have some in the fridge.

Here are the quick and easy steps, the most time consuming part of these rolls is thawing your puff pastry.

I used Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry. Follow the directions on the box for thawing,

overnight in the fridge or on the counter at room temperature for 30 – 40 minutes

until you can unfold it.

Unfold one pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface with the folds going left to right.

Use a rolling pin to lightly press out creases from folds.

Add a thin layer of pumpkin butter, spreading with offset spatula,

leaving a 1-inch border on the puff pastry. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.

Starting with the end nearest you, roll puff pastry up around the filling,
finishing the roll with the seam-side down.

Trim the ends of the roll about ½ inch and discard. Slice the roll in 6 equal pieces.

Place each piece spiral side up, filling 6 wells of a 12-cup standard muffin pan.

Repeat with the second piece of puff pastry.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until rolls are golden brown on top and firm to the touch.

    As always, your timing is perfect! I may have overindulged on the apple caramel and pumpkin flavored butter purchases this year and I was wondering last night how best to use them all. My daughter arrived home from college last night. I’m making these now so she’ll wake up to this delicious treat! Thanks for the quick treat, yum!

  10. November 22, 2021 at 5:21 pm

    Oh My Goodness! I’ll be making these! These look not only pretty but delicious!
    Thank you!

    These sound so good! YUM! Am pinning! I think I would still bake that little end piece and slather it in the pumpkin butter when it was done baking for a little extra bite, hehe. Thank you Mary for another winner, I’m sure. Over the weekend I will be baking my favorite of your recipes, the pecan muffins—oh SO good! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Hug the pups for me! 🦃🍊🐾♥️ (p.s. My beautiful Turkey handle 6 piece serving piece is on display ready for use as well as my Tom Turkey plates strutting their stuff, thanks to you! Love my gifts! Love you!)

    Can these be made up the night before and refrigerated and then baked in the morning? I have a large number of guests coming and am looking for ways to save time.

    • October 24, 2023 at 11:44 am

      Hi, Yes, you can prep a day ahead and refrigerate. Cover rolls with plastic wrap to keep from drying out.
