In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, salt, and instant yeast.
In a separate bowl, combine the warm milk, melted butter, pumpkin puree, and egg. Mix until smooth.
Add the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
In the meantime, prepare the filling by mixing together the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a small bowl.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle about 12x16 inches.
Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the butter.
Starting from the long side, roll the dough tightly into a log and pinch the seam to seal.
Cut the log into 12 equal pieces and arrange them in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover and let them rise again for 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
While the buns rise, prepare the streusel topping by combining the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl. Cut in the chilled butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the buns.
Bake the buns for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Let them cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy your Pumpkin Cinnamon Streusel Buns!
