Orange Pumpkin Cloverleafs

Ingredients for Orange Pumpkin Cloverleafs

• 3/4 stick unsalted butter, melted, divided

• 2 teaspoons active dry yeast (from a 1/110g package)

• 60ml warm milk (105-46°C)

• 1 tablespoon mild honey or sugar

• 650ml plain flour plus more for kneading and dusting

• 1 1/2 cucharaditas de sal

• 80ml canned pure pumpkin

• 2 large eggs, divided, plus 1 yolk

• 1/2 teaspoons grated orange zest

• 2 cucharadas de jugo de naranja fresco

• 1 cucharada de agua

• Equipment: a muffin pan with 12 (1/3- to 1/2-cup) muffin cups

Butter muffin cups with 1 tablespoon melted butter.

Stir together yeast, warm milk, and honey in a large bowl and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. (If mixture doesn't foam, start over with new yeast.)

Mix flour, salt, pumpkin, 1 whole egg, yolk, orange zest and juice, and remaining 80ml butter into yeast mixture with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until a soft dough forms. Turn out dough onto a floured surface and knead, dusting surface and your hands with just enough flour to keep dough from sticking, until dough is elastic and smooth, 6 to 8 minutes. Form dough into a ball.

Put dough in an oiled large bowl and turn to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel and let dough rise in a draft-free place at warm room temperature until doubled, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Punch down dough (do not knead), then halve. Roll half of dough on a lightly floured surface with lightly floured hands into a 12-inch-long log (keep remaining half covered with plastic wrap).

Cut log into 6 equal pieces, then cut each piece into thirds. Roll each piece into a 1-inch ball by cupping your hand and pushing dough against work surface as you roll in a circular motion. Put 3 balls side by side in each of 6 muffin cups.

Make more rolls with remaining dough in same manner. Cover rolls with a kitchen towel (not terry cloth) and let rise in a draft-free place at warm room temperature until dough is about 1 inch above rim of muffin cups, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Precalienta el horno a 191°C con la rejilla en el medio.

Whisk together remaining egg and water and brush on tops of rolls. (You will have leftover egg wash.)

Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer rolls to a rack and cool at least 20 minutes.
