First of all, I want to apologize. My blog is under construction and some things still need to be fixed. Also, my recipe plug-in screwed up so I don’t have a print or save button attached. All in good time this blog will be beautiful! Do you like it so far?
Second of all….these sweet rolls! I think it’s safe to say that this sweet roll recipe is a hit. It was the best dough I’ve ever worked with and it was so easy to make. When I first saw these on Sally’s Baking Addiction I knew I had to make them. If you’ve read my blog before you know my family likes to have Cinnamon Buns on Saturday mornings. This past weekend I wanted to do something a little different, and boy, am I glad I did!
I had a bag of frozen mixed berries in the freezer and thought they would probably work just as well as Sally’s raspberry version. Well, they did! Don’t you love how moist and gooey these look? You really need to try these sweet rolls…..like now! They whip up in no time and they come out so incredibly tasty. I also noticed that Karly over at Buns In My Oven posted these today too. See, they must be good if two of us are posting about them! Go check hers out….she has beautiful pictures.
Mixed Berry Sweet Rolls
- DOUGH:
- 1 cup milk
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting/rolling
- FILLING:
- 2 cups of frozen mixed berries
- 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. sugar
- 4 tsp. flour (I didn’t have cornstarch so this worked too)
- GLAZE:
- 1 cup icing sugar
- 3 Tbsp. milk (3%)
- Zest of one clementine orange
- In a small saucepan, heat milk to lukewarm and pour into mixer.
- Add yeast and sugar to mixing bowl and slowly mix using the paddle attachment until combined. Cover and let sit for about 10 minutes.
- Add the butter, eggs, and salt and mix on medium speed.
- Switch to the dough attachment and start adding the flour 1 cup at a time at medium speed until all flour is added and/or dough is soft and smooth.
- Remove dough and knead for about 2 minutes on a lightly floured surface.
- Transfer dough to a greased bowl, cover and let stand for about 2 hours or until dough has doubled in size.
- Line the bottom of a 9″X13″ pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium bowl gently combine frozen berries, sugar, and flour.
- After dough has risen, roll out into a rectangle about 10″X24″ and spread filling evenly over dough.
- Tightly roll dough into a 24″ long roll and cut into 16 pieces, about 1.5″ each.
- Place cut sides up into the prepared pan and cover until doubled is size (or refrigerate overnight, take out in the morning and let double in size before placing in the oven).
- Preheat oven to 400 F. Cover rolls with foil and bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 10-15 minutes.
- While rolls are cooling, in a small bowl combine icing sugar, milk, and orange zest until smooth and creamy.
- Pour over warm rolls and enjoy!





















These look delicious, Liz. Right up my alley! Perfect for a weekend morning treat.
Love your new look. Just FYI, you have a typo in your header menu – Squares
Thanks Jennifer! I really need to get a better camera though…my point & shoot is just not cutting it anymore! Thanks for the heads-up about the typo
These are gorgeous! I love that you used mixed berries!
Yum!! These look great! I would love a weekend breakfast like this with my family. Unfortunately I have the biggest sweet tooth in the family and end up eating way too many. My parents are coming to visit soon, I’ll have to keep these in mind to share with them.
I’m like you and I just can’t have one. With these sweet rolls, it will be hard to just have one so beware! Let me know if you make them for your family.
Ps, I showed these to my husband once I saw your post go up last night and he demanded that we make them this weekend… and I’ve been dreaming of them all morning…
I would love it if you’d come link up to Foto Friday!

My pictures, unfortunately, don’t do these sweet rolls justice. You’ll just have to make them to believe me! I’ll definitely link back up on Friday!
P.S. I never know if people receive my replies. Can you let me know if you do? Thanks!
These look super delicious!!
They are delicious…you’ll have to try them. You won’t be disappointed!

Gorrrrrrrgeous! What a smart idea to use mixed berries!
Aren’t these just amazing??
Thanks for linking up to What’s Cookin’ Wednesday!
Hi Liz! I thought that I commented on these already.
I love that you made them!! I’m making them again this weekend and I can’t wait! Good to know that flour can work in place of the cornstarch here. yours are beautiful! i’m hungry for one now!
These sound amazing! My husband has been “hinting” for me to make sweet rolls for the last few weeks–this recipe looks like a keeper! Thanks so much for linking up at What’s In Your Kitchen Wednesday!
these turned out beautiful Liz!!!!
Oh my goodness, these look so yummy! I must try these. I have an awesome cinnamon roll dough in the bread machine recipe that I will prolly substitute because I hate making dough from scratch. But I am definitelyuy trying fruit in the rolls.
I would love it if you would share this (and anything else you have been working on) at my linky party! http://domesticrandomness.blogspot.com/2013/01/friday-fascinations-8-everything-linky.html
