This Fan-Favorite Pillsbury Cinnamon Roll Is Back Just In Time For Fall
Labor Day has passed, which means pumpkin spice season is in full swing. And one brand that hasn't wasted any time bringing its pumpkin spice-flavored products back is Pillsbury, because its seasonal Grands Pumpkin Spice Rolls are now returning to store shelves. The rolls are made with Cinnabon brand cinnamon as well as a pumpkin spice-flavored icing, so those of you who love the smell of warm autumn sweet rolls baking in your oven, now's your chance to snag them. Pillsbury had been teasing its fall releases via social media in the past few weeks, so this was bound to happen around now.
But there's a ton more pumpkin spice products from Pillsbury returning this year as well. Pillsbury is also bringing back its pumpkin cookie dough, which is ready to bake (and safe to eat raw, which is an aspect we're grateful for, since raw flour can make you quite sick), along with its Perfectly Pumpkin cake and cookie mixes. Its ready-to-bake Pumpkin Spice Bread Batter, which made its first appearance last year, has also come back. We're awash in pumpkin stuff and we barely finished putting our grilling utensils away.
Making your own pumpkin spice is really easy
Even though Starbucks' pumpkin spice latte has also already returned, not every product out there has a pumpkin-spiced version, so if you'd rather go the do-it-yourself route, we once spoke to a food blogger about how to whip up your own. She told us that it's as easy as remembering ratios: Stick to six parts of cinnamon, two parts of allspice and ginger, and then one part each of ground clove and nutmeg. All you have to do is combine the spices well and you're good to go.
That being said, there isn't anything easier than tearing open a premade package of anything then popping the dough in the oven, which is part of why Pillsbury's Grands Pumpkin Spice Rolls have quite the following. And now that pumpkin spice has become a tradition rather than just a one-off treat, getting into the autumn mood couldn't be more convenient. Technically, you'd be three weeks early if you started today (fall officially begins on September 22), but I know there's a few of you out there who wait for this all year. Now's your time to shine.
