Notes
You can use any flavor of cinnamon rolls— the pumpkin or Cinnabon flavors would be delicious.
Make sure you are using pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie mix.
Light or dark brown sugar will work in this recipe.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat 1-2 at a time in the microwave for 30 seconds.
