Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg
- 2 cups fresh peaches, chopped (or frozen, thawed)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup milk
Sweeteners and Sugars:
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons cinnamon
Spices and Thickeners:
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
- Craft a pillowy soft dough by blending flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Incorporate melted butter, milk, and egg until a cohesive mixture forms. Gently knead the dough on a flour-dusted surface, then roll into a thin rectangular shape approximately 12×8 inches.
- Create a luscious peach filling by combining fresh peaches with brown sugar, cornstarch, ground cinnamon, and a hint of nutmeg. Thoroughly coat the fruit mixture, ensuring even distribution of spices and thickening agent.
- Carefully spread the peach mixture across the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle a cinnamon-sugar blend evenly over the fruit layer for additional sweetness and warmth.
- Tightly roll the dough from the long edge, creating a spiral pattern. Gently seal the edge to prevent filling from escaping. Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 8-10 uniform segments.
- Arrange the rolls in a generously greased baking dish, allowing slight space between each piece for expansion. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 25-30 minutes until the rolls transform into a golden-brown, bubbling delicacy.
- While the rolls bake, whip together a silky glaze by whisking powdered sugar with milk and vanilla extract until smooth and drizzle-ready.
- Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and immediately drizzle with the prepared glaze. Serve warm for maximum flavor and texture enjoyment.
Notes
- Ensure the dough is rolled out evenly to prevent uneven baking and maintain consistent roll sizes.
- Use ripe, juicy peaches for maximum flavor and natural sweetness in the filling.
- Consider adding a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to enhance the warm, aromatic spice profile of the rolls.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend and add xanthan gum for better texture.
