Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm milk (105-115°F)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk. Stir in sugar, melted butter, egg, and vanilla. Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Knead dough on a lightly floured surface for 5-7 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled.
- In a small bowl, mix blueberries, 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and cinnamon.
- Punch down dough and roll into a 12×18 inch rectangle. Spread softened butter over dough. Sprinkle blueberry mixture evenly over butter.
- Starting with the long side, roll up dough tightly. Cut into 12 equal slices.
- Place rolls in a greased 9×13 inch baking pan. Cover and let rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until nearly doubled.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While rolls are baking, whisk together powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract for the glaze.
- Pour glaze over warm rolls. Serve immediately.
Notes
- If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them before adding to the filling.
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg to the filling.
- Rolls can be made ahead and refrigerated overnight before baking. Let them come to room temperature before baking.
