Ingredients:
For the Yeast Dough:
- 520g flour
- 100g sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 70g soft butter
- 14g dry yeast (equivalent to two packets)
- 250ml milk
For the Filling:
- 400g blueberry jam
- 4-5 tablespoons sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)
- A dash of cinnamon (optional)
For the Frosting:
- 100g cream cheese
- 100g powdered sugar
- 30g very soft butter
- A bit of vanilla paste
Preparation:
- Yeast Dough:
- Knead all the dough ingredients together and work the dough for several minutes until it's smooth and elastic. Let the dough rise covered in a warm place for about 1 to 1.5 hours until it doubles in size.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 60cm x 40cm rectangle. Spread the cooled blueberry jam evenly over the dough, sprinkle with additional sugar and cinnamon if desired.
- Forming the Rolls:
- Roll up the dough from the long side and cut it into approximately 9 equal pieces. Place the pieces cut-side up in a greased baking dish or springform pan and let them rise again for about 10-15 minutes.
- Baking:
- Bake in a preheated oven at 160°C (fan) or 180°C (conventional) for about 25 minutes.
- Frosting:
- Mix all the frosting ingredients until creamy. Spread over the warm rolls so it melts slightly and spreads evenly.
