Description
A recipe for sweet rolls filled with raspberry jam and topped with a simple glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup warm milk
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar, plus 1 tablespoon for yeast
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup raspberry jam
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk, for glaze
Instructions
- Combine warm milk and 1 tablespoon sugar in a bowl. Sprinkle yeast over the top and let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
- In a large bowl, cream together the 1/2 cup sugar and softened butter until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time.
- Stir the yeast mixture into the butter mixture.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough. Roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a 12×18 inch rectangle.
- Spread the raspberry jam evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border on one long edge.
- Starting from the long edge opposite the border, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seam closed.
- Cut the log into 12 equal rolls. Place the rolls cut-side up in a greased 9×13 inch baking pan. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While the rolls cool slightly, whisk together the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of milk to make the glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls before serving.
Notes
- For a thicker jam filling, you can reduce the jam slightly before spreading.
- If the dough is too sticky during kneading, add flour one tablespoon at a time.
