Golden Pumpkin Twists




There's nothing more fun than sharing recipes with those you love. My Mom gave me this recipe a few years ago, and I finally got around to trying it today, namely because I have a nasty cold, and I couldn't stand to study anymore. Hot pumpkin rolls sounded a lot more intriguing than the Christianization of Iceland in 1000 A.D. I even almost followed the recipe. I cut down on the sugar by half, the yeast by a teaspoon, and used mostly whole wheat flour. They still turned out really puffy and light. The recipe says to sprinkle them either with poppy seeds or sesame seeds. I didn't have any poppy seeds, so I sprinkled some with sesame seeds, and the rest with cinnamon sugar. I have yet to taste the sesame ones, but the hint of cinnamon on the others is delicious! Now, I'm going back to my hot water bottle, and my tea. Good night!
