Raspberry Rolls for Secret Recipe Club Group A

Today is Secret Recipe Club Reveal Day for Group A. Group A? I thought you were in Group D, Nicole? Didn’t you just post a week ago? Yes, yes I was, and I did. I made the switch this month to get an earlier posting date for various reasons, but what I am most excited about is new blogs to discover! Thank you April, for making this transition into a new group so easy and fun. For the record, I had the option to sit out a month, but that so wasn’t happening. In fact, I told her I could just do two if I needed to, but she was able to make it happen.
So this month (or rather week, because I had the blog a week) I was assigned the blog Cookbook of Trial and Error whereby I found such sweet goodies as Nutella Buns and Chocolate Hazelnut Fanciers and such savory goodies as Chicken with Pecan Cream and Mushrooms and Kung Pao Chicken. All of which made my immediate possibilities list and I am pretty sure I will return to make at some point. However, I went with these yummy Raspberry Rolls because I only had a few days and I had already planned out all my other meals. Two of my daughter’s are gone for three weeks and we wanted to make a special breakfast before they left – and these were one of the highlights.
The Raspberry Rolls are flaky, light and delicious. A total winner all the way around with all of my kids, when I get five thumbs up on a recipe it’s always a good thing.
I didn’t change a single thing from her Raspberry Rolls recipe – it stayed completely the same. {which btw. almost never happens}. When we make these again, I am thinking about sifting some powdered sugar over the top just to fancy them up a little. I was also thinking what a great dessert they would make if you dripped some chocolate ganache across them. Yes, the possibilities for these little Raspberry Rolls are pretty much endless.
Light, flaky and delicious! These little bites could be changed up to match any mood or flavor. We loved them for breakfast!
Ingredients
- 1 lb of Challah dough from Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day (link below the recipe)
- 5 Tbs. Raspberry jam
- Sweet egg wash = 1 egg white + 1 tbsp milk + 1 tbsp brown sugar
Instructions
Cut 1 lb of refrigerated Challah dough (see instructions here or in the book). Dust the dough with all purpose flour and form a ball.
Dust your work surface and a rolling pin and roll the dough into a 12 inch circle. {special note:} You might need to let the dough rest a little if it shrinks back after you roll it. Use more flour to prevent the dough from sticking to the pin or to the table.
Cut the round into 12 equal slices. {special note:}She suggests using a pizza cutter. So do I. We went with a knife originally, and it worked but a pizza cutter is just faster and easier}
Spread the raspberry jam evenly over each slice.
Roll each slice from the wide side towards the center. Place the rolls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and allow to rest for 40 minutes. {special note:}If the rolls do not rise, don’t worry – most likely they will rise in the oven.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. In a small bowl, mix up your sweet egg wash and brush the rolls all over with the egg wash.
Put them in the oven on the middle rack for about 25-30 minutes.
Allow to cool slightly {we waited about 5-10 minutes} and enjoy!
