To make this delicious pastry, you will need the following ingredients:
For the dough:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 large egg
For the filling:
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup raisins
To make the dough, combine the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and egg. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for a few minutes until it becomes smooth. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
To make the filling, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and raisins in a small bowl.
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle shape. Spread the filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Roll up the dough tightly, starting from the long side. Cut the dough into slices, about 1 inch thick.
Place the slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown. Let the pastry cool for a few minutes before serving.
This Raisin Cinnamon Swirl is a perfect combination of sweet and spicy flavors. The pastry is soft and fluffy, while the filling is gooey and delicious. This dish is perfect for breakfast or as a snack, and it is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
