Ingredients
- A pumpkin
- 150 g Sugar
- Cinnamon and nutmeg
- 1 Egg
- 20 ml Oil
For the dough:
- 500 g Flour
- 250-300 ml of lukewarm water
- 4 g yeast or 7g dry yeast
- 10 g of sugar
- 10 g of salt
- 10 ml Oil
Instructions
Prepare the dough
- In a large bowl, add the flour, salt, sugar, and yeast. Gradually add the lukewarm water and knead gently until the dough starts to come together. After a few minutes of kneading, add the oil and continue kneading until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
- Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it doubles in size.
Prepare the pumpkin
- Peel the pumpkin, remove the seeds, and cut it into small, thin pieces.
Rolling out the dough
- Once the dough has risen, divide it into two equal parts. Roll out each piece into a thin sheet approximately 30 cm wide and 70 cm long. Brush each sheet of dough with a little oil.
Filling and rolling
- Place the pumpkin pieces on about 65% of the dough sheet, then sprinkle with sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg on top.
- Roll the sheet starting from the side with the pumpkin. Place the rolls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and brush them with beaten egg. (Optional) Sprinkle the rolls with poppy seeds, chia seeds, sesame seeds, or other seeds as desired.
Cooking
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F) and bake the rolls for 45 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Let the rolls cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or cold.
