      We watched your video tonight. My wife has made several hundred of these over the years going back to the mid 80’s.
      She said she won’t be letting them cool for three hours any longer. Lol So thank you for that time saving tip!
      Something she began doing the last few years was to use parchment instead of the lint free towels. Much less laundry when making a lot of them and she said it works fine. Actually she said it was a game changer. The only difference she noted in the recipe is that the one she has used has lemon juice in it. Enjoying your channel!!!!!!

      I have made this several times over the last few years. I use less sugar in the dough and the filling, more pumpkin, clove and cardamom seasoning also. They are a big success. Getting ready to make some in the next few days. Thank you for your great videos.

    I just picked up hazelnut oil and pastatio nut oil. Clearance, not rancid,, I checked at the store after I paid for them. They were marked to 375, and 4 dollars, 75%off.
    Did not know what I was going to do with these lovely little bottles, besides salad dressing with raspberry and orange balsamic.. ( which I've had already this week, OOOOH! DELICIOUS!.
    BUT I OPENED the bottles so I have to use them consistently.
    Oiling the parchment paper,, and have it's essence absorb in the product. I'm going to do pastatio scones and biscotti. And then hazel nut.
    We are doing Thanksgiving Saturday.. so I'm going to do these tonite.. can't wait!
    Ooh! Just thought of this too. I also got bread on clearance at bakery, brioche and Italian round. I'm going to put them in the oven, ( pieces), and do a sweet oil dip. Cinnamon, vanilla, clove, nutmeg in warmed oil to dip the heated bread. Crisp outside soft inside..
    I get the reduced breads to use for stuffings, French toast, bread puddings. Usually a buck or so. But now, the clearance breads are like 4 bucks! I checked the shelf price, it was about 25 cents difference.. so not worth it over home bread.. what's up with that!
    My favorite store bread,, Prison Bread, lol has not gone up, it's still 5 bucks, as is pigs fly bread.
    These I'll usually get to bring pot luck , with cream cheese , hot pepper jelly, peach or cherry preserve, chocolate and original hummus. Some fruits. Toast lightly the bread after I cut it into finger slices .. comes to about 12 bucks and feeds 8, appetizers.. the prison bread is a great consistency for this, with all it's ancient seeds.. ( if ya don't have diverticulitis)

    HI Melissa, I have just rolled up the cake part, and it's cooling. I'm about to do the filling. I'm doing it the other direction like your friend suggested, simply because I'll need 10 slices! Question: if I freeze it, how long do you wait to thaw it? Or *do* you thaw it? I'm wondering if it would be less messy to slice it when it's still frozen, plate it, and then serve it, either frozen or not, depending on your response. Thanks so much for this recipe. It smells fantastic. I am using my Oregon Sweet Meat pumpkin, which has the BEST flavor, so this is gilding the lily for sure!

    • @MelissaKNorris
      @MelissaKNorris  5 лет назад +1

      Freezing overnight is fine, either thaw in the fridge for 8 hours or so or on the counter for an hour or so before serving. As long as it's chilled its very easy to slice and serve.

      @@MelissaKNorris My experience is to cut the frozen roll without thawing to get very clean slices with no crumbs. It takes a bit of work with a serrated knife but I now use a double-handled pizza cutter. We make a few hundred pumpkin rolls each year at our church bakery for fund raising at farmer's markets and craft fairs, at this time of year. We triple the recipe and bake in commercial pans. So our pumpkin log is 24" long. After freezing we cut the 2 ends off making single servings and cut the remainder into 3 pumpkin rolls.
