1/4th cup raspberry preserve
2/3rd cup raspberry
- Icing
1 cup powder sugar
2 tbsp water
2 tsp lemon extract
Directions
- In a large boil, whisk almond milk, melted butter and sugar. make sure your ingredients aren’t too hot – but just warm. (I suggest microwaving your butter for 45 secs)
- Sprinkle yeast evenly over mixture and whisk – let sit for 5 mins or less (while yeast gets frothy)
- Slowly add 4 1/2 cups flour and salt to the butter mixture & mix with a wooden spoon until combined
- Set oven to warm and place dough mixture in a lightly oiled bowl with a towel for 1 hour to double in size
- Add remaining 1/2 flour and lightly kneed the dough until it doesn’t stick to the sides of your bowl
- Place dough on a clean, lightly floured surface, knead into a rectangle and roll the dough to 1 inch thickness
- Combine your filling ingredients and add your raspberry filling
- At the base roll the dough evenly until you get a giant log – trim off uneven tips
- Starting at the middle, cut the log into half and create 1 1/2 inch thick raspberry rolls
- Place the rolls on an oiled cake pan and set them aside in a warm spot wrapped in plastic wrap for 30 minutes to double
- Place in the oven @ 350 for 25 mins or until golden brown
- Combine all icing ingredients and add to rolls once fresh out of the oven
- Enjoy!
