Description

These Raspberry Cinnamon Rolls are the ultimate treat for those who love the combination of sweet, tart, and spice.

The rolls are then baked to golden perfection and finished with a drizzle of tangy lemon glaze, which perfectly complements the sweet raspberry filling.


Ingredients

Scale

Fluffy Raspberry Cinnamon Swirls
Ingredients:
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
For the Lemon Glaze
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Zest of 1 lemon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine 4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons instant yeast, and 1 teaspoon salt.
Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/4 cups lukewarm milk, 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon melted unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, and 2 large eggs.
Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough begins to form.
Knead the Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
First Rise: Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Prepare Filling: Mix 1/2 cup granulated sugar with 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Gently toss 1 cup fresh raspberries in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Shape the Rolls: Roll out the risen dough into a 12×18 inch rectangle. Evenly spread the raspberry-cinnamon mixture over the dough. Starting from the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log.
Cut and Second Rise: Cut the log into 12 equal slices. Arrange the slices cut side up in a greased 9×13 inch baking pan. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes, until puffy.
Preheat Oven: Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake: Place the rolls in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Make Glaze: While the rolls bake, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, zest of 1 lemon, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Adjust consistency with additional lemon juice if needed.
Glaze and Serve: Once baked, remove rolls from the oven, let cool for 10 minutes, and then drizzle with lemon glaze. Serve warm.
