I absolutely love brown butter glaze, especially for my fall treats.  The browned butter adds such a warm flavor that compliments the spices of fall baked goods.  

Want to know how to take to the next level?  Add maple syrup!    

I knew a pumpkin skillet cinnamon roll was in order for the fall and what better to top it off than this deliciously sweet and flavorful golden glaze of goodness?

 In addition to being perfect on this pumpkin cinnamon roll, it would be great on apple treats, oatmeal cookies, coffee cake or drizzle it over a Bundt or pound cake. You will be happy with whatever you put it on!
