How to make Lemon Blueberry Rolls?
Share with a friend:
Soft honey bun dough:
1. In a small bowl, pour 1 cup of room temp. water, and gently dissolve dry yeast in it, stirring with a spoon. Let it stand still for about 5 minutes until frothy.
2. In another bowl, pour hot water and whisk in salt and sugar. Beat for at least 1 minute and let the mixture cool to room temp.
3. While the mixture is cooling, beat the eggs in a separate bowl.
4. Add 2 cups of flour to the cooled mixture and stir until a smooth batter forms. Pour in the yeast mixture and continue stirring until well combined. Finally, fold in the beaten eggs into the batter.
5. Gradually add the remaining flour. Knead the dough by hand, adding a small amount of flour if necessary to prevent sticking. Continue kneading until the dough becomes smooth, elastic, and has a soft texture.
6. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for approximately 30 minutes.
For the filling:
1. Melt the butter over low heat.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, finely grated lemon zest, and lemon juice, rubbing them between your fingers to release the aroma.
3. After the dough has risen, gently knead it once more and roll it out into a rectangular shape. Evenly spread melted butter over the dough, and sprinkle the lemon sugar mixture on top of the buttered dough.
4. Evenly distribute fresh blueberries over the sugared dough.
5. Roll the dough into a log and cut it into slices about 5 cm wide. Place the cut slices in a baking tray lined with parchment paper and let them rest for an additional 15 minutes until the sweet dough rises.
6. Preheat the oven to 180˚C. Once the oven is hot, bake the soft sweet rolls for 25-30 minutes or until the top turns golden brown. Avoid opening the oven during baking.
For the frosting:
1. While the rolls are baking, let’s prepare the icing for the sweet rolls. Melt the butter over low heat.
2. In another medium-sized bowl, mix the cream cheese with powdered sugar, finely grated lemon zest, and freshly squeezed lemon juice until it forms a smooth consistency.
3. Pour the melted butter into the cream cheese mixture and mix again until all the ingredients are well combined.
4. After baking buns with filling, evenly spread the cream glaze over the rolls using a spoon.
