Raspberry Cream Cheese Sweet Rolls

These were served at Janessa's wedding...you might never want a regular cinnamon roll again!
Soft, buttery rolls spread with a cream cheese mixture and stuffed with juicy raspberries. These Raspberry Cream Cheese Sweet Rolls make a special treat. Author: Mallory Recipe type: Breakfast Serves: 8-9 rolls
Ingredients
For the Dough:
½ tablespoon instant yeast
½ cup warm milk
3 tablespoons sugar
¼ cup butter, well softened, but not melted
½ teaspoon salt
1 egg
2 cups all purpose flour

For the Cream Cheese Filling:
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons butter, softened
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

For the Raspberry Filling:
1 and ½ cups frozen raspberries
½ tablespoon cornstarch

Cream Cheese Glaze:
¼ cup butter, softened
1 ounce cream cheese
½ teaspoon vanilla
¾ cup powdered sugar
2-4 tablespoons of milk.

Instructions
1. Proof the yeast in the warm milk for 10-15 minutes or until bubbly*.
Whisk in the sugar, butter, salt and egg. Stir in the flour until the dough comes together.**
2. Knead the dough on a floured surface for a few minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Place in a greased bowl and let rise until double in size.

3. To make the cream cheese filling, beat together the cream cheese, butter and sugar until smooth.
Stir in the vanilla. Toss the raspberries in the cornstarch right before rolling out the dough***.
4. Roll the dough into an 10 by 18 inch rectangle. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough
with a butter knife. Sprinkle with the raspberries and roll up tightly starting on the short edge.
5. Using thread or a very sharp knife, cut the log into 8 or 9 rolls.
Place them in a greased 12 inch skillet or 11 x 7 baking pan. Let rise in a warm place until double.

Bake at 375 F for 15-16 minutes.
Double check the center rolls to make sure they are not doughy before removing from the oven.
6. Let the rolls cool slightly before drizzling with the glaze. Add more milk if necessary to thin the glaze.


her notes: *Increased yeast (a bit)
*Instant yeast went into flour not warm milk.
**Creamed: Sugar & Butter, added salt, egg, then added warm milk.
Switched to paddle (I have a Bosch) and added flour (which had instant yeast already in it).


***Crumbled frozen raspberries and added a couple tablespoons of sugar with the cornstarch.


*Took a long time to rise due to frozen berries. I covered with plastic &
towel and set on warm oven. Or you could heat oven to 200 - shut it off - leave door open
and put covered rolls inside to rise.


* fit into 1 - 12” round pan (lined with parchment paper)


* Baked at 375 (convection); 18-20 minutes.


Also: I froze some on cookie sheets after they were rolled and cut.
Took a few out before going to bed and let them rise in pan (covered with plastic) over night on counter.
Baked in the morning as per instructions

Homemade Bagels

4 cups bread flour (can use half whole wheat) - ***I use all purpose flour. If you want to do the whole wheat variety - I find its better to do 3 C all purpose to 1 C whole wheat (little less dense)
§  1 T sugar ***I have made them yesterday with brown sugar - same results
§  1 1/2 tsp salt
§  1 T vegetable oil
§  2 tsp instant (quick-rise) yeast
§  1-1/4- 1-1/2 cups of warm water *** (usually needs the full 1 1/2 cups)
Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl **(I use stand mixer with dough hook). If needed, add extra water to blend in all the flour for a stiff dough.
Knead the dough for 10 minutes until smooth.
Divide the dough into 8 equal balls and let rest for 10-20 minutes. **(I cover during this time)
Roll out each dough ball between your hands until it looks like a snake. Hold one end of the dough in one hand, and wrap the other end around your hand. Press the two ends together.
Let bagels rise, covered, on the counter for 20 minutes.
 
While rising, preheat the oven to 425 degrees, and boil a large pot of water with approx 2 t brown sugar in it. After 20 minutes of rising, plop each bagel into the boiling water. Boil for 1 minute then turn over (too long and the ends will start to separate!). **(the bagels will puff up and get fat during the boiling)
Drain on a paper towel, then move to a greased cookie sheet. 
Bake the bagels for 20 minutes, turning part way through 
Add flax or sunflower seeds to the dough during the kneading stage
Add sesame and poppy seeds to the tops of the bagels before baking.
**Lauryn's adaptations:
- Whole wheat variety - I find half whole wheat is a little dense, I prefer 1/4 wh. wheat (so 3:1)
- Add grated cheese to top before baking (do not turn while baking)
- Herb and Parmesan variety - *Use all white flour in dough - add thyme, oregano, garlic powder, and rosemary to dough, top with Parm and/or grated Cheddar
- Add cinnamon and raisins to dough

English Muffins

1 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
2 cups all purpose flour Lauryn's edit**can add whole wheat flour instead of white (I do 3/4 c whole wheat and 1 1/4 white). Too much whole wheat makes it too heavy. 
1 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast
cornmeal
Put the ingredients in your bread machine in the order listed (minus the cornmeal).
Start the dough cycle. When finished, sprinkle your work area with cornmeal. Using your hands, pat the dough into a 1/2 inch thick rectangle. Turn the dough so the sides are coated with cornmeal.
Cut into 8-10 rounds, then gather up the leftover dough and cut into more rounds.
Place on a baking sheet and let rise for 20-30 minutes, until not quite double.
Heat a skillet or griddle over low heat. Spray lightly with cooking spray. Cook the muffins about 5-7 minutes per side (they should be golden brown when you turn them).
Serve warm and enjoy!

Pumpkin Bread

1 ½ c flour
1 t baking soda
½ t baking powder
¾ t ground cinnamon
½ t ground ginger
¼ t ground cloves
¼ t allspice
½ t salt
4 eggs
1 c sugar
¼ c brown sugar
½ t vanilla
¾ c pumpkin puree
¾ c canola oil
¼ c chopped pumpkin seeds, optional

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a loaf pan.

Combine the flour, soda, powder, spices and salt in a bowl.

Beat the eggs, sugars and vanilla together in an electric mixer on high speed for 30 seconds. Add the pumpkin and the oil and mix well.

Let cool in pan 10 minutes, and then turn onto cooling rack to cool completely.

Sometimes instead of making the bread, I put the dough into muffin papers for muffins. When I do that, I add a crumble topping to the muffin, which is

2 T butter, softened
2 T rolled oats
2 T flour
1/4 C packed brown sugar

cut/mix until crumbly and place a spoonful on each muffin. Muffins bakes for approx 15mins.

4 teaspoon salt
10C unbleached all-purpose flour

Let sugar and yeast rise in warm water. Mix in dry ingredients and knead.
spread on pizza pans. (Add spices like garlic powder and oregano if you like to the dough while mixing.)

The pizza dough recipe that I started using in 1977 has had a few adaptations happen over the years. This is the 2006 version which we are still using.


Zucchini Bread

2 cup sugar
3  eggs
1 cup oil
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 cup coarsely grated, peeled, loosely; packed zucchini
2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1 cup chopped nuts
1/2 cup raisins

Preheat oven to 350. In large mixing bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Add
sugar, oil, and vanilla to eggs and beat until thick. Stir in zucchini.
Sift together dry ingredients and add to zucchini mixture. Mix well. Stir
in nuts and raisins. Pour into two greased and ligtly floured loaf pans.
Bake 1 hour or until done.

Note: In the summer, grate and freeze zucchini in 2C measures.  Before baking, thaw and drain well.

Sour Dough

 When you receive that donation of sour dough, friendship batter or whatever they call it. Don't grit your teeth. There is so much you can do with it and you don't even have to give any away. 

Here are my notes on satisfactory sour dough:
1. The starter sour dough can be frozen when received. When thawed
treat as Day 1 in schedule. Or use for baking that day after allowing the
sour dough to come to room temperature.
2.  Day 1-receive 1C starter, Day2,3&4 stir or mush the bag, Day 5 add 1C flour, 1C sugar, and
1C milk.Stir or mush. Day 6,7,8&9 stir/mush, Day 10 add 1C flour, 1C sugar, 1C milk and stir/mush.
Give 1C starter to 3 friends in ziplic bag or 'sour cream' container. Do not refridgerate!
3. DO NOT use any type of metal spoon or bowl for mixing
DO NOT refridgerate.
4. Keep the lid on your "tupperware" just sitting on top, not actually sealed. If air gets into the ziploc bag, let it out and reseal. It is normal for the batter to rise, bubble & ferment.
5. It is a good idea to write the date of DAY 1 on your calendar, the bag or tupperware to keep you on track.

This collection of recipes come from my grandmothers, and the recipes that have been given to me with the sour dough.

6  eggs
