In a 2-lb bread machine, add all ingredients in the order listed (except 1/4 c. melted butter), or in the order recommended by your specific bread machine.
Run the short dough cycle.
On a lightly floured surface, divide dough into 2 balls.
Roll each ball into a 12-inch circle and brush with half the melted butter.
Cut each circle into 8-12 wedges.
Starting at long end, roll each wedge to the tip of the dough and pinch to seal.
Place crescent rolls on greased cookie sheets and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
While rolls rise, preheat oven to 375ºF.
Bake rolls in preheated oven for 12 minutes, or until starting to brown.
Brush with remaining melted butter.
Notes
*Depending on the kind of pumpkin you use, you may need a little more flour than this. Start with this amount, and check your bread machine after the initial mixing (most bread machines “beep” at the end of this time), adding more flour if necessary.
