Place ingredients for the dough (milk, pumpkin puree, egg, butter, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and yeast) into the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Set the bread machine to the 'dough' setting and start the cycle. This typically takes about 90 minutes.
While the dough is being prepared, make the filling by mixing the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and softened butter. Set aside.
Once the dough cycle is complete, transfer the dough to a floured surface. Roll it out into a rectangle approximately 12 x 18 inches.
Spread the cinnamon filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the filling.
Starting from one long side, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
Cut the log into 12 equal slices using a sharp knife or dental floss.
Arrange the slices in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, leaving a little space between each bun for rising. Cover the dish with a clean kitchen towel and let the buns rise in a warm place for about 30-45 minutes or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Bake the buns for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
While the buns are baking, make the cream cheese glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, cream cheese, butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Once the buns are out of the oven, let them cool for about 10 minutes before drizzling with the cream cheese glaze.
Serve warm and enjoy your Pecan Pumpkin Cinnamon Buns as a Halloween treat or autumn indulgence!
