Description

Delicious raspberry cinnamon rolls drizzled with a refreshing lemon glaze.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups milk, lukewarm
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • For the Raspberry Filling:
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries, finely chopped or minced
  • For the Lemon Glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, melted butter, vegetable oil, and eggs.
  3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough begins to form.
  4. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  5. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  6. Mix sugar with cinnamon in a small bowl and toss raspberries in the mixture.
  7. Roll out the dough into a 12×18 inch rectangle and spread the raspberry mixture evenly over it. Roll it tightly into a log.
  8. Cut the log into 12 equal slices and arrange them cut side up in a greased baking pan. Let rise for 30 minutes.
  9. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  10. Bake for 25 minutes, until golden brown.
  11. While baking, whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract for the glaze.
  12. After baking, let the rolls cool for 10 minutes and drizzle with the lemon glaze. Serve warm.

Notes

  • You can adjust the thickness of the glaze by adding more lemon juice.
  • Ensure the dough is in a warm place for the best rise.
  • Fresh raspberries can be substituted with frozen, but make sure they are thawed and drained.
