Ingredients (per serving):
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp active dry yeast
- 1/4 cup warm milk
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup jam of your choice
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp honey
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure your milk is warm, but not too hot. If it's too hot, it can kill the yeast.
- Use a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment to make the dough. It will save you time and effort.
- Let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free place. This will help it rise properly.
- Use a sharp knife or pastry cutter to cut the dough into rolls. This will help them keep their shape.
Cooking Process:
1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast.
2. Add the warm milk, egg, and softened butter to the bowl and mix until a dough forms.
3. Knead the dough for 5-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover it with a damp towel. Let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for 1 hour.
5. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
6. Roll out the dough into a rectangle and spread the jam evenly over the surface.
7. Roll up the dough tightly and cut it into 8-10 rolls.
8. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
9. In a small saucepan, melt the brown sugar, butter, and honey together over low heat.
10. Pour the glaze over the rolls and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
