In another bowl, mix the warmed almond milk mixture with pumpkin puree, eggs, melted butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until combined.
Gradually add wet ingredients to dry ingredients until a sticky dough forms.
Knead on a floured surface for 5 minutes; let it rise in a greased bowl covered with plastic wrap for about 30 minutes until doubled in size.
Prepare the filling by mixing softened butter with brown sugar and Dessert Lover Blend.
Roll out dough into a rectangle; spread filling evenly and roll tightly into a log.
