Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into three portions. Roll each portion into a 12-in. circle; cut each circle into 12 wedges. Roll up wedges from the wide end and place pointed side down 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Curve ends to form crescents., Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 400° for 12-15 minutes. Remove to wire racks.

PUMPKIN PIE CRESCENTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, sugar, egg and pumpkin pie spice.
• Unroll the crescent dough on the baking sheet, separating the triangles. Place about 1 Tablespoon of the pumpkin mixture on each triangle.
• Starting with the largest end of the dough, roll the crescent over the pumpkin mix, then slightly pinch the dough closed to keep the filling from leaking out. Continue rolling the dough into a crescent shape.
• Bake at 375F for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
• For the glaze: Add a small amount of milk to the powdered sugar and stir. Continue adding small amounts of milk and stirring until the icing is a good consistency. If the icing is too thick, add more milk. If it's too thin, add more powdered sugar. Mix until smooth.
• Pour the icing into a plastic zip bag.
• After the pumpkin pie crescents have cooled for about 10 minutes. Cut off a small corner from the zip bag and drizzle the glaze over the crescents.
• Serve warm and enjoy!

QUICK & EASY PUMPKIN CRESCENTS

• Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, whisk the first 6 ingredients; stir in 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. In another bowl, whisk pumpkin, oil and brown sugar; stir into flour mixture just until moistened., In a small bowl, mix sugar and remaining cinnamon; reserve 2 teaspoons cinnamon sugar for topping. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 10 times. Divide in half; roll each portion into a 10-in. circle. Brush each circle with 1 tablespoon melted butter; sprinkle with 2 teaspoons cinnamon sugar. Cut each into 8 wedges. Roll up wedges from the wide ends. Place 1 in. apart on a greased baking sheet, point side down; curve to form crescents. Brush tops with remaining butter; sprinkle with reserved cinnamon sugar., Bake 9-11 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to a wire rack; serve warm.

EASY PUMPKIN DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, add pumpkin puree, milk, butter, one egg, yeast, sugar, and salt together in a large bowl. Whisk to combine, about one minute.
• Add flour and stir well to combine until there are no dry flour visible in the bowl. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula.
• Transfer the dough onto a clean and lightly greased surface. The oil will help keep the dough from sticking to your hands initially. You can also lightly oil your hands.
• Knead the dough until the dough is smooth and not sticky at all (*see notes below on how to knead dough). Because of the high fat content (butter and milk) in this recipe, it should take less than 5 minutes of kneading by hand to achieve a non-sticky and smooth dough ball. A well-kneaded dough is smooth and can hold its shape. You can test the dough by giving it a firm poke with your finger. The indentation should bounce right back. If it doesn't bounce back and stays like a dimple, keep kneading for a few more minutes.
• Transfer the kneaded dough back into the bowl. Lightly apply some oil over the dough with a brush and cover the bowl with the lid. Let it rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
• Transfer the dough onto a clean surface and deflate the dough ball by punching the air out or pressing down with a rolling pin.
• Roll the ball of dough into a log and divide it into 15 equal pieces with a knife or bench scraper. Cover the dough with a damp cloth or cling wrap to prevent it from drying. When the dough loses moisture, it tends to form hard skin around its surface, which creates a crust when baking.
• Take one piece at a time, flatten each dough with your hands, and fold and press all edges into the center. Then, turn it over and cup the dough in your palm, making circular motions and shape each piece into a smooth, round ball. It should take less than 30 seconds to roll each piece into a smooth ball.
• Transfer the dough balls to a greased quarter sheet baking pan.
• Cover the baking tray with aluminum foil or seal it in a large Ziploc bag. Let the rolls rise for one hour. The rolls should almost double in size. Letting the dough rise in a warmer area will help the rolls rise faster. I leave my baking sheet in the oven (turned off) and leave another pan filled with boiling water at the bottom of the oven to help the rolls rise (proof) faster.
• Preheat oven to 375 F.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown. Lightly brush some melted butter on top and let the rolls cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes before serving.
• Serve with a side of condensed milk for dipping.

PUMPKIN PIE CRESCENTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F and prepare a parchment-lined pan.
• Combine pumpkin pie filling, egg yolk, and pumpkin pie spice.
• Unroll crescents and place 1 slightly heaping tablespoon of pumpkin mix on each crescent.
• Starting with the large end, roll the crescent over once and slightly pinch the sides to contain the filling. Continue rolling (a little filling might leak out, that's ok). Place on the prepared pan.
• Bake 10-12 minutes or until browned.
• Meanwhile, combine glaze ingredients until smooth. Place in a small ziptop bag.
• Let crescents cool on the pan for 10 minutes. Snip off a corner of the ziptop and drizzle the glaze over the crescents. Serve warm.

MINI PUMPKIN PIE CRESCENTS RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine cream cheese, canned pumpkin, 1 Tablespoon of pumpkin pie spice, and 3 Tablespoons of sugar. Beat together until fluffy and creamy to make your pumpkin filling. Set aside.
• Roll each crescent roll out and cut lengthwise in 2. Drop a tablespoon of pumpkin pie filling on each crescent. Spread the filling about half way down the cut crescent. Roll up each crescent starting from the thick end to the thin end. They will be a little messy, but that is just fine! Makes 32
• Mix together 4 Tablespoons sugar, 1 Tablespoon pumpkin pie spice, and 1 Tablespoon of cinnamon. Roll each filled crescent in your sugar mixture. Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 15-18 minutes, or until golden in color.

Place dough on floured surface. Knead 3 to 5 minutes or until dough is smooth and springy.
• Place dough in large bowl greased with shortening, turning dough to grease all sides. Cover and let rise in warm place about 1 hour or until double in size.
• Place dough on lightly floured surface. Knead a few times. Shape dough into a ball, then flatten. Roll into 15-inch circle. Spread with remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Cut into 16 wedges. Roll up each wedge, starting at wide end. On ungreased cookie sheet, place rolls with points underneath and curve slightly. Cover and let rise in warm place 20 to 30 minutes or until double in size.
• Heat oven to 400°F. Bake uncovered 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
