Ingredients
Dough
- 250 ml Milk lukewarm
- 7 g Instant Yeast (or 1 packet)
- 550 g All Purpose Flour
- 100 g White Sugar
- Pinch Kosher Salt
- 1 Egg
- 120 g Unsalted Butter room temperature
- 1 tsp Vanilla Paste
Filling
- 150 g Raisins
- 1/4 cup Rum
- 100 g Frangipane Almond Paste
- 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter softened
- 2 tbsp Milk
- Pinch Salt
Glaze
- 150 g Powdered Sugar
- 2 tbsp Lemon Juice
Instructions
Dough
- Add instant yeast to the lukewarm milk in a small bowl and let rest for 5 minutes until foaming.
- In a large bowl add the flour, sugar, soft butter, egg, vanilla paste, pinch of salt and milk/yeast mixture. Knead into a smooth dough, either with your hands or with a food processor. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until it has doubled in size.
Filling
- Place the raisins in a bowl and cover with rum. Set aside.
- Place the almond paste in a bowl and using your fingers, knead in the softened butter, milk and salt until you have a smooth, creamy mixture. Drain the raisins.
Assembly
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle (approx. 1 cm thick). Spread the dough evenly with the almond cream, leaving no border. Sprinkle evenly with the plumped raisins. Roll up the dough from a short end and then slice the roll crosswise into 20-24 pieces.
- Place the rolls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving enough space between each bun. Cover the tray and let them rise for another 20-30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400 F.
- Remove the dishcloth and place the baking sheet of risen buns in the oven. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
Glaze
- Mix the powdered sugar with the lemon juice until you have a smooth glaze. Brush the raisin rolls with the glaze while they are still warm. Serve and enjoy!
