Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls (Freezer Meal)

November 02, 2014

These delicious cinnamon rolls are infused with all of the flavors you would expect to find in pumpkin pie, and covered in maple-flavored icing. They are well worth the extra effort it takes to create them from scratch! Finished rolls can be frozen unbaked, baked/unfrosted, or completely finished.
