Method
 

Dough Preparation
  1. In a stand mixer bowl, combine 1 cup of warm water, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 2 tablespoons of yeast. Let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add 3 ½ cups of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of salt, mixing on low. Then, add ¼ cup of softened butter and 1 cup of pumpkin puree, continue mixing until a slightly sticky dough forms.
  3. Transfer dough to a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm area for 1 hour, or until doubled.
  4. Gently punch down the dough, divide into 10 pieces, roll into balls, and place in a greased loaf pan.
  5. Cover and let shaped rolls rise for another hour while preheating your oven to 350°F.
  6. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan and mix in 2 tablespoons of sage, setting aside.
  7. Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and hollow-sounding.
  8. Brush hot rolls with sage butter after removing from oven, and cool for 20 minutes before serving.
