- Divide the dough by pulling off sections, and rolling them into balls
- Place the dough balls onto a lightly greased baking sheet – placing dough balls a couple of inches apart
- Flatten them into the shape of a disk
- Take kitchen scissors, and cut slits all around the disks, about 1/2 inch apart
- Brush each roll with the egg white mixture
- Place a long slivered almond in the top center of the pumpkin disk
