How to Make Pumpkin Maple Pull-Apart bread with Whiskey Sauce
- In a saucepan, brown two tbsp butter. You want it to have a nutty aroma and have brown flecks in it
- Allow to sit for about 15 minutes, until the temperature reaches about 105 degrees.
- Once cooled, add in 1/4 cup white sugar and package of yeast. Let sit for ten minutes until foamy.
- Add pumpkin, brown sugar, salt, and about a cup and a half of flour. Mix together with dough hook attachment.
- Remove dough ball and put in slightly oiled bowl. Place a clean tea towel over the bowl and let the dough rise for about 90 minutes. The dough should nearly double in size.
- While the dough is rising, prepare your filling. Start by browning another 2 tbsp butter.
- Once all the pieces are in the loaf, cover and let rise for an additional 30 minutes. While it is on the last rise, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 35 minutes.
- I recommend putting a foil sheet on the bottom rack of your oven. I experienced a little bit of overflow, so this will help prevent a large mess in your oven. While it is baking, prepare the whiskey glaze.
- In a sauce pan, melt two tablespoons butter. You do not have to let it brown this time.
- Once it is melted, carefully add in sugar, cream, milk, and vanilla. Stir until everything is combined.
