4 tablespoons milk

Notes
Add cream cheese to pumpkin filling for extra richness.
Use brioche or challah bread for a softer, richer texture.
Drizzle with caramel sauce or dust with powdered sugar before serving.
To make ahead, roll and refrigerate overnight, then cook fresh in the morning.
Freeze before cooking, then thaw slightly and cook as directed.
