Ingredients
Dough
- 1/3 cup Caster sugar
- 1 tsp Caster sugar (for yeast)
- 1 tsp Active dry yeast
- 3/4 cup a2 Milk® Full Cream, warmed to 40°C
- 2 cups Plain flour
- 1 Large egg
- 1/4 cup Margarine
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Vegetable oil (for greasing bowl)
Filling
- 1 cup Strawberry jam
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
Icing
- 3 tbsp a2 Milk® Full Cream
- 1 tbsp Margarine
- 3/4 cup Icing sugar, sifted
Directions
Dough
- In a small bowl, combine the warm a2 Milk® Full Cream, 1 tsp sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let stand for 5-10 minutes until bubbly.
- In a large bowl, add the remaining 1/3 cup sugar, flour, softened margarine, salt, and egg. Mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the yeast mixture and stir until a shaggy dough forms.
- Lightly oil a large bowl. Transfer the dough to the bowl and turn to coat lightly. Cover with a clean tea towel and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough. Roll out on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle, approximately 30cm x 40cm.
- Lightly margarine a 20cm x 30cm baking dish. Set aside.
Filling
- Spread the strawberry jam evenly over the dough, leaving a 1cm border. Scatter the sliced strawberries over the top.
- Starting at the long side, roll the dough tightly into a log, pinching the seam to seal.
- Cut the log into 8 equal rolls, about 4cm thick.
- Place the rolls cut-side down in the prepared baking dish. Cover loosely and let rise in a warm spot for 30 minutes or until doubled in size.
- While rising, preheat oven to 175°C (155°C fan-forced).
- Uncover and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
Icing
- In a small bowl, whisk together the a2 Milk® Full Cream, melted margarine, and icing sugar until smooth.
- Drizzle over the warm rolls and serve.
