First off, I'd just like to say this Trader Joe's skillet-baked pumpkin rolls recipe serves six to eight people, and I ate half the pan in a matter of minutes. I literally couldn't get a forkful in my mouth fast enough. If you've ever made or followed along with a Trader Joe's recipe before, then it should come as no surprise how damn tasty these pumpkin rolls are.

Coated in a pumpkin spice and sugar mixture and brushed with melted butter, they're melt-in-your-mouth-fantastic. A straightforward recipe is always appreciated, and if the ingredient list and instructions are short, even better! Pop that can open, cut each roll into quarters, coat, and bake. For a bit of a crunch, you can sprinkle candied pecans or chopped walnuts as a bonus. That's all there really is to it.

This fall snack pairs nicely with a gloomy, brisk day spent snuggled under your favorite blanket, binging TV, or caught up in a good book. Don't worry about lighting a candle — one whiff of these baked rolls and your home will be smelling like a pumpkin-scented candle.

Trader Joe's pumpkin rolls are only available for a limited time and are a hot commodity among pumpkin-lovers, so be sure to snatch a can before they're gone. Happy baking!
