Tis the season for pumpkin! Every fall, I make pumpkin rolls. You know the one that involves a lot of work, but is so yummy that you end up making it regardless? This year however, I have my hands full with two kids. Nevertheless, my pumpkin roll cravings are still going strong. One afternoon, I improvised, and that day, I bit into the best pumpkin cream cheese rollups I've ever tasted.
This is a such a great, easy fix to my cravings. It has the perfect crunch with a creamy warm filling. Best of all, you can make just one or two rollups, instead of baking a whole roll. You also don't need an oven or mixer.
First you'll want to mix pumpkin puree and brown sugar in a bowl.
Then you'll want to use a rolling pin or glass to flat the bread. Cut off ends of bread if desired. This is perfect for an older child to do!
Then spread the cream cheese on the bread.
Roll the prepared bread like a tube.
In a bowl add egg and milk and beat. Dip prepared rollups in mixture. Add some butter in a pan and brown on all sides.
