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

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.
  2. Add warm milk, melted butter, and eggs. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  3. 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.
  4. In a small bowl, mix the 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon for the filling.
  5. Roll out the risen dough into a 12×18-inch rectangle and spread raspberries evenly across the surface.
  6. Sprinkle the sugar mixture over the raspberries.
  7. Roll the dough tightly into a log from the long edge, then cut into 12 equal rolls.
  8. Place the rolls in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Cover and let rise again for 30 minutes.
  9. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  10. Bake the rolls for 20–25 minutes or until golden brown.
  11. In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, and milk to make the glaze.
  12. 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.
