Ingredients
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) instant yeast
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup warm milk (110°F)
1/4 cup melted butter
2 large eggs
1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries (thawed if frozen)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon milk (adjust for consistency)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.
Add warm milk, melted butter, and eggs. Mix until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough for 6–8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
In a small bowl, mix the 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon for the filling.
Roll out the risen dough into a 12×18-inch rectangle and spread raspberries evenly across the surface.
Sprinkle the sugar mixture over the raspberries.
Roll the dough tightly into a log from the long edge, then cut into 12 equal rolls.
Place the rolls in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Cover and let rise again for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the rolls for 20–25 minutes or until golden brown.
In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, and milk to make the glaze.
Drizzle glaze over warm rolls and serve.
Notes
Use room temperature ingredients for better dough consistency.
Adjust milk in glaze for desired thickness.
Thawed frozen raspberries can release extra moisture—drain slightly if needed.
