Paleo Pumpkin Pecan Cinnamon Rolls are such a delicious weekend fall breakfast! Ooey, gooey, with a delicious pumpkin spice cashew cream frosting. Recipe is refined sugar free, grain-free, and gluten-free, but no one has to know!
Are you finally feeling that change in the air this week? Those crisp fall mornings where a sweatshirt is needed to walk the dog, and and the smell of cozy pumpkin spice are two of my favorite things about fall. We can also add scarves, tall boots, plaid shirts, sweaters, and changing of the leaves to the list.

Ingredients
For the dough:

1/4 tsp sea salt
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
2 tsp baking soda
2 eggs
1/3 cup coconut oil melted
2 tbsp pumpkin puree

1/2 cup finely chopped dates
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
For the Cashew Cream:
1/2 cup raw cashews soaked in hot water for at least 15 minutes
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
4 tbsp full fat coconut milk or coconut cream
Instructions
- For the dough: In a small bowl, whisk together dry ingredients: both flours, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together wet ingredients: eggs, coconut oil, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Add dry ingredients to wet, and continue to mix until a thick dough is formed and all dry pockets are incorporated.
- Divide the dough in two equal parts, you will be making two separate "rolls" . Place each piece of dough between two large pieces of parchment paper, and roll out into a large rectangle (about 15 x 6 inches). Drizzle with a bit of maple syrup, top with cinnamon, and sprinkle each rectangle with 1/4 cup dates, and 1/4 cup pecans. Very carefully, begin to roll the dough at the long edge, rolling nice and tight. Place each roll into the freezer to get firm, for about 20 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees. Remove each roll from the oven. Slice each roll into pieces that are about 1.5 inches thick, and place on a baking sheet. Bring the pan to the oven, and bake for 12 minutes, or until the top is slightly golden.
