Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the dough
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet instant yeast (2 1/4 tsp)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup warm milk (110°F)
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 2 large eggs
For the filling
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries (thawed if frozen)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
For the lemon glaze
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp milk (adjust for consistency)

Equipment

  • 9x13-inch Baking Dish

Method
 

  1. Make the dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Add warm milk, melted butter, and eggs. Mix until a soft dough forms, then knead for 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  2. Prepare the filling: In a small bowl, mix sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Roll out the dough into a 12x18-inch rectangle and spread raspberries evenly across it. Sprinkle the sugar mixture over the raspberries.
  3. Shape the rolls: Roll the dough tightly into a log, starting from the long edge. Slice into 12 even rolls and place them in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
  4. Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  5. Make the glaze: Whisk powdered sugar, lemon juice, and milk until smooth. Drizzle over warm rolls and serve.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for the dough to ensure even mixing. For a thicker glaze, reduce the milk or add more powdered sugar.
