Sticky Pumpkin Pecan Cinnamon Rolls

October 13, 2021 by Tamara Giebel Leave a Comment

Sticky Pumpkin Pecan Cinnamon Rolls celebrate fall with pumpkin cream cheese frosting and sticky caramel pecan topping.

Sticky Pumpkin Pecan Cinnamon Rolls celebrate fall with pumpkin cream cheese frosting and sticky caramel pecan topping.

We take The Best Cinnamon Rolls recipe and add pumpkin puree then slather with pumpkin cream cheese frosting. A very creamy, fluffy frosting with pumpkin puree and spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. Taking it a step above is the final layer of sticky caramel pecan topping that drips over the edges and seeks in all the folds. Imagine your favorite sticky bun combined with your favorite cinnamon roll, then add a little fall pumpkin to the mix.

Pro Tip

The caramel topping is great for many uses. Make extra, omit the pecans, and store in a condiment bottle. This sweet caramel sauce can be used in your morning espresso, as a dip for sliced apples and drizzled over just about anything. I like to top pancakes, waffles and my Banana Dutch Baby with caramel sauce.

Ingredients in Sticky Pumpkin Pecan Cinnamon Rolls

  • Pumpkin Puree – Such as Libby’s Pure Pumpkin in a can – or you can make your own using small pumpkins.
  • Pecans – I buy the Costco bag and store in the freezer, as nuts can be expensive.
  • Lemon – Lemon juice or the juice of a fresh lemon.
  • Egg – One preferably farm fresh egg.
  • Spices – Ground cinnamon and nutmeg make for that fall flavor.
  • Pantry Items – Flour, sugar, dark brown sugar, confectioner’s sugar, active dry yeast, vanilla, salt.
  • Dairy Items – Butter, heavy cream, sour cream and cream cheese.

  • ½ cup warmed milk
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 egg
  • 3 ½ cups flour

Filling:

  • 1 1/4 cup or 3/4 of a 15 oz. can of pumpkin puree
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • 2 tbsp. cinnamon
  • ½ tsp. nutmeg

Pumpkin Frosting:

  • 4 oz. cream cheese room temperature
  • 1/2 cup or 1/4 of a 15 oz. can of pumpkin puree
  • 4 tbsp. butter room temperature
  • 1 cup confectioners sugar
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 tsp. cinnamon

Caramel Pecans

  • 1 cup pecans rough chopped
  • 4 tbsp. butter

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 tsp. vanilla

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl combine yeast and warm water. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl combine warm milk, sugar, melted butter, salt and egg. Add 2 cups of the flour and combine. Add yeast mixture and slowly add remaining flour until combined enough to knead on lightly floured board. Knead dough for about 10 minutes, then roll out into a rectangle approximately 16 x 10 inches (It doesn’t need to be perfect).
  • In a medium bowl combine all of the filling ingredients. Spread evenly over the rolled out dough.
  • Starting on the long side furthest away from you, roll dough evenly towards you, creating a long roll.
  • Cut into 6 slices and place in a buttered and sugared baking dish.
  • Cover with towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 2 hours.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees and bake until golden brown on edges, about 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.

Pumpkin Frosting

  • Blend all ingredients together until creamy. When cinnamon rolls are cooled, spread frosting over top.

Caramel Pecans

  • Toast pecans on a sheet pan on lowest rack under broil until no longer chewy, about 3 minutes (be careful not to burn).
  • Melt butter in a sauce pan over medium heat. Add dark brown sugar and stir until combined. Add heavy cream and vanilla. Cook for about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and add toasted pecans.
  • Pour caramel pecan mixture over frosted cinnamon rolls.

Caramel Apple Scones

October 4, 2021 by Tamara Giebel Leave a Comment

Caramel Apple Scones are made bakery style with tart granny smith apple and caramel pieces with caramel drizzle.

Caramel Apple Scones are packed with tart granny smith apple and caramel pieces with caramel drizzle.

Kraft Caramel Bits are added together with apples to make these bakery style scones. They taste very similar to an apple fritter with gently sautéed apples in butter, cinnamon and brown sugar. This mixture gets folded into the fluffy scone batter. What really tops them off is the caramel drizzle. Sweet caramel pairs perfectly with tart Granny Smith apples. Sprinkle a few caramel bits on top of the scones right after the caramel drizzle.

The homemade caramel sauce makes extra, so be prepared to store the remaining sauce for another use. I keep condiment bottles on hand to store my sauces in. The extra caramel sauce can be used in a variety of ways, such as in your coffee, drizzled over banana pancakes or as a dip for cut apple slices. Store the caramel sauce in the refrigerator for about a week.

The addition of the apple mixture creates a wetter than normal dough. Make sure to have flour on hand and add a little as you need to make the cut dough transportable to the sheet pan. I like to use my metal kitchen scraper to portion the dough into scones. It also works really well for clean up of all that flour. Just scrape it off.

Ingredients in Caramel Apple Scones

  • Apples – Granny Smith apples are tart and sweet, perfect for baking.
  • Caramel Bits – Kraft Caramel Bits, little caramel chips smaller than the original caramels.
  • Pantry Items – Flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, salt.
  • Vanilla – I like to buy good vanilla or find someone to bring it back from Mexico.
  • Cinnamon – Ground cinnamon, always try to buy the best.
  • Dairy Items – Butter, cream and an egg.

Bright & Citrusy Lemon Zucchini Scones

September 10, 2021 by Tamara Giebel Leave a Comment

Bright and Citrusy Lemon Zucchini Scones are made bakery style with plenty of shredded zucchini and a sweet lemon zest glaze.

These sweet and savory scones are easy to whip up for breakfast. They are packed full of real lemon and zucchini, but what really makes them special is the lemon zest glaze. A very simple blend of powdered sugar, lemon juice and lemon zest makes for a beautiful glaze and the perfect sweetness.

These scones are a great way to use up the garden fresh zucchini. I know every year I try to plant less and less zucchini plants, but even with only one plant this year, I have an abundance of zucchini. The ever producing plant. I like to use my bigger coarse grater when preparing the zucchini for this recipe. That way there is noticeable zucchini in every bite and the beautiful green color really stands out.

When combining the dough ingredients, try not to over work. You want to mix until just combined. When forming into a flat circle, try to just barely pat it together. This will keep your scones nice and fluffy. No dense hockey pucks here! Let them cool before drizzling on the lemon zest glaze, otherwise it will slide right off.

Ingredients in Bright & Citrusy Lemon Zucchini Scones

  • Zucchini – I like to use a large grate for bigger pieces of zucchini.
  • Lemon – Two fresh, thick skinned lemons for zesting and juice.
  • Cream – Heavy cream also known as whipping cream.
  • Egg – Farm fresh eggs if possible for best flavor.
  • Butter – One stick of real butter straight out of the refrigerator and grated.
  • Pantry Items – Flour, I like unbleached, sugar, baking powder, salt, powdered sugar.

New Woman Cheese, Bacon, Zucchini and Roasted Red Pepper Quiche

August 24, 2021 by Tamara Giebel Leave a Comment

New Woman Cheese, Bacon, Zucchini and Roasted Red Pepper Quiche takes flavor from Jamaican jerk spiced cheese, farm eggs and a butter crust.

Spices like allspice, clove, cinnamon, nutmeg and scotch bonnet peppers in Beecher’s New Woman Cheese create a complex flavor that mingles nicely with creamy eggs. Smoky thick cut bacon lardons just add to that earthy flavor. We roast our own red peppers and layer in fresh zucchini ribbons for a beautiful look.

Where to Find Beecher’s Cheese

Beecher’s Handmade Cheese is local to Seattle at historic Pike Place Market and is the original site. New York’s Flatiron District hosts the second site, but you can find this handcrafted cheese at most local grocery stores.

The best thing about Beecher’s handmade cheese is that they focus on foods that are free of all the bad stuff, like hydrogenated oils (a.k.a. trans fat), artificial preservatives, colors, and sweeteners. They also use local dairy farmer’s to supply the milk for their craft cheese.

Beecher’s New Woman Cheese has a very unique flavor. Jamaican jerk spices add an earthy, nutty, spice that is like no other cheese. In a dish as simple and mild as a quiche, it adds just the right amount of flavor and a hint of smokiness.

Tart Pan Vs. Quiche Pan Vs. Pie Pan

This recipe calls for a 1 inch thick, 9 inch round tart pan.  Tart pans have a removable bottom, making it easier to cut and serve buttery, flaky crusted dishes. The only difference in a tart pan vs. a quiche pan is the depth.  Quiche pans are deeper, usually about 2 inches deep.  If using a quiche pan, you will want to double the quiche filling ingredients.  The crust ingredients should be just fine, as you have a little extra to work with.

Sometimes, a pie pan is used to make quiche.  No removable bottom here, resulting in a need for a thicker crust. If using a pie pan, due to the depth, you will want to double the quiche filling ingredients as well as make more crust.  The crust will need to be rolled out slightly thicker than if using a tart pan or quiche pan.

When adjusting the recipe and doubling the quiche filling, make sure to increase the cooking time.  You will know when the quiche is fully cooked when it no longer jiggles in the middle.  You don’t want to over cook your quiche, just to the point where it has just stopped jiggling.  

Ingredients in New Woman Cheese, Bacon, Zucchini and Roasted Red Pepper Quiche

  • Beecher’s New Woman Cheese – A savory Jamaican jerk flavored cow’s milk cheese made in Seattle.
  • Bacon – Thick cut, smoked bacon, such as Hempler’s.
  • Zucchini – Smallish zucchini cut into long thin ribbons.
  • Red Bell Pepper – Good size, firm red bell pepper.
  • Eggs – Farm fresh is best, you can really tell the difference in the fluffiness.
  • Heavy Cream – Also called whipping cream.
  • Pantry Items – Butter, flour, salt, pepper.

  • Quick Pickled Onions – Red onions get pickled in just 15 minutes.
  • Bacon – Thick cut bacon cooked in the oven.
  • Cilantro – Fresh sprigs of cilantro.

Preparation

  1. Make the Quick Pickled Onions by soaking thinly sliced red onions in white vinegar, salt and sugar.
  2. Make the Smashed Avocado by smashing avocado together with lime juice, salt and pepper.
  3. Warm the refried beans and keep warm until ready to use.
  4. Cook the bacon in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.
  5. Butter and broil Bolillo roll halves.
