Puff Pastry Pumpkin Spice Rolls

 These are the easiest almost cinnamon rolls. We replace cinnamon with pumpkin spice and replace homemade dough with thawed puff pastry. Puff pastry is one of the easiest short cuts you can have on hand. These are a perfect fall snack or breakfast item.

So easy. Thaw the one piece of puff pastry per package instructions.

1/4 cup of brown sugar.

Mix with 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice mix. This smells so good.

Mix it well.

Melt 1 Tablespoon butter. I actually used a little bit more. 

Roll out the dough to a 12x9 rectangle. Brush the butter over all of it.

Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture all over the pastry.

Covered well.

Start on the long end start rolling it up. Try to get it tight so the good stuff doesn’t come out.

All rolled up. Use a serrated knife to cut into slices. Try to make them the same size.

Place on a parchment lined sheet. Place in a preheated 400 oven. Bake for about 17-18 minutes. Keep a close eye on them. You don’t want them to get too brown.

While they are baking start working on the icing. I make mine a little different than the recipe. Start with 3/4 cup of powdered sugar.

1 Tablespoon maple syrup.

Chop up about 1/4 cup pecans.

Nice and golden brown.

Sprinkle the tops with the pecans.

Now drizzle the icing on top. Now in addition to the powdered sugar and syrup the recipe calls for 2 Tablespoons of cream cheese. I like a thiner icing. So I added a little water to the powdered sugar to think it out. If I had had milk I would have used that. 

They are all iced and plated.

A close up of the rolls. These are so flaky and you will get crumbs everywhere. But boy are they good.
