Raspberry Cinnamon Rolls with Lemon Glaze

  • Total Time: 1 hour 55 minutes

Description

Indulge in the ultimate breakfast treat with these irresistible Raspberry Cinnamon Rolls with Lemon Glaze! Combining the warmth of cinnamon with the bright flavors of raspberry and zesty lemon, these rolls are perfect for special occasions or lazy weekend mornings. The soft, fluffy dough, swirled with raspberry jam and cinnamon, then topped with a tangy lemon glaze, creates a harmony of flavors that will delight your taste buds.

Ingredients

  • For the Dough: 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¼ cup granulated sugar, 1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeast, ½ tsp salt, ½ cup whole milk, ¼ cup water, ¼ cup unsalted butter, 1 large egg.
  • For the Filling: ½ cup raspberry jam, ¼ cup granulated sugar, 1 tbsp ground cinnamon, 2 tbsp melted butter.
  • For the Lemon Glaze: 1 cup powdered sugar, 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 1 tsp lemon zest.

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Warm milk, water, and butter until butter melts (110°F). Combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a bowl. Add warm milk mixture and egg, then knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth.
  2. Let the Dough Rise: Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  3. Assemble the Rolls: Roll dough into a 12×16-inch rectangle. Brush with melted butter, spread raspberry jam, and sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture. Roll tightly and cut into 12 slices.
  4. Bake and Glaze: Arrange rolls in a greased dish, let rise 30 minutes, then bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes. Drizzle with lemon glaze before serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh raspberry jam for the best flavor.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free place for optimal fluffiness.
  • For extra tang, add more lemon zest to the glaze.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
