Jelly Filled Rolls
Well my baking addiction took over my life this past weekend with a vengeance. Not only did I make these rolls once, I made them twice in the same day! I made them the first time with pomegranate jelly and gave them to my sister, then my husband came and asked if there were any left. Well that’s all I needed to hear, I started making another batch. And let me tell you these recipe makes about 48 of these rolls, so there are plenty to share with everyone. I want to talk to you about this dough though because it’s so easy to make and so versatile. You can make rolls like this and fill them with anything, even with cheese, or I filled some with peanut butter and jelly, or Nutella, have to admit the Nutella rolls were my favorite, but that’s just cause I’m a Nutella junkie. I even made cinnamon rolls with this dough and they were fabulous. The dough from the recipe is a lot, so feel free to cut it in half, but with my first batch, I made 16 rolls filled with pomegranate jam and 8 giant cinnamon rolls, just to give you an idea of how much dough you’ll end up with.
How To Make Jelly Filled Rolls
The dough should be quite soft to the touch, almost sticky. I always freeze my yeast and 30 minutes before using it, I take it out and take whatever amount I need and put it in a bowl. I let it sit at room temperature for the 30 minutes, then I add the warm water and sugar to activate it. This method never fails for me. I always end up with dough that rises beautifully, as you can see in my picture. The rolls you see in the picture above were filled with Just Jan’s Mango Chipotle savory spread which were just amazing, a bit sweet but there’s also a bit of heat in that jam. I received a few jars from Just Jan’s Jams and I love them all. However, like I said before you can fill these rolls with anything you wish. To make the rolls, it’s quite easy, you’ll need to cut the dough into 3 big pieces and roll each one out like you would with pizza dough into a circle that’s about 14″ in diameter. Then all you have to do is spread your jam or jelly of your choice and using a pizza cutter, cut it into 16 equal pieces. You might think they’re too small, but you’re wrong, they’ll end more than doubling in size. You’ll need to brush them with egg wash so they end up nice and shiny. And then after you bake them, you end up with these beauties! These ones below are the ones I made with the Just Jan’s Pomegranate Jam, they were so yummy! I dare you to eat only one. We couldn’t! The rolls are so soft and flaky and sweet. Perfect for breakfast with a good cup of coffee or tea.
