Рецепт Lime Sweet Rolls
When spring rolls around, it always puts me in the mood to bake with lemons and limes. I guess their fresh flavor just makes me think of summer and sunshine. And after 5 months of winter, anything that resembles summer and sunshine is sure to cheer me up!
I love orange rolls, and thought I'd experiment with lime sweet rolls to see if they would be as good. Oh boy. Were they ever! My boys aren't very fond of orange rolls, but they loved these. I made them for conference Sunday, and I think we may have to start a new tradition. They are amazing!
Lime Sweet Rolls
Dough:
- 1 1/2 Tbsp. instant yeast
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 1 1/2 cups warm milk
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup oil (I use canola)
- 2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 5-6 cups flour
- Lime Filling:
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 Tbsp lime zest
- Lime Icing:
- 2 Tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp lime zest
- 1 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 Tbsp lime juice
Mix yeast, sugar, and water. Let sit for five minutes. Add milk, eggs, sugar, oil, salt, and vanilla. Add flour a cup at a time. Add enough to get a soft dough. Knead till smooth. Place dough in a greased bowl and let rest for about 20 minutes. Roll out on an oiled counter to a rectangle about 13×28". Spread melted butter evenly over the top of the dough. Combine sugar and lime zest and sprinkle over the butter. Roll dough up and seal the edge by pinching. Cut into slices 1" to 1 1/2" thick. Place on greased cookie sheet with sides. Cover with waxed paper and let rise till doubled, about 45-60 minutes. Bake at 350° for about 30 minutes or till lightly browned.
Combine icing ingredients, adding enough lime juice to make a thin icing. Spread over warm rolls.
-Makes about 2 dozen super yummy rolls.
