Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use maple syrup or honey instead of some sugar.
  • Add chopped pecans or walnuts to the filling for extra crunch.
  • Increase nutmeg and cloves, or add ginger for a stronger spice profile.
  • Substitute half the flour with bread flour for fluffier rolls.
  • Drizzle caramel sauce over the glaze for a festive touch.
