Perfect for a sunny breakfast or special brunch, these rolls combine the soft, fluffy texture of homemade rolls with the zesty, tangy flavour of lemon curd. Ingredients for the Dough: 1×7 grams sachet of dried yeast 1 teaspoon caster sugar 4 tablespoons water, lukewarm 450 grams plain flour, plus extra for dusting Pinch of salt 120 millilitres milk, lukewarm 60 grams unsalted butter, melted 50 millilitres water, lukewarm 1 large egg, at room temperature 50 grams caster sugar Ingredients for the Filling: 125 grams lemon curd 1 tablespoon cornstarch Additional Ingredient: 100 millilitres whipping cream Ingredients for the Topping: 100 grams lemon curd Method 1. Activate the Yeast In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast with 1 teaspoon of sugar in 4 tablespoons of lukewarm water and leave to stand until the yeast is foamy. It takes about 5-10 minutes. If it is not foamy, start with new yeast. While the yeast is activating, measure all the ingredients to ensure even baking. 2. Make the Dough Heat 120 millilitres of milk in a saucepan and melt 60 grams of unsalted butter in it. Set it aside to allow it to cool to room temperature. In a large mixing bowl, combine 450 grams of plain flour, a pinch of salt, and stir briefly. Make a well in the centre of the flour and add the milk mixture, 1 egg, 50 millilitres of lukewarm water, and 50 grams of caster sugar. Stir briefly with a spatula, then add the activated yeast. Knead with the dough hook of an electric mixer for 5-7 minutes. Once a smooth and elastic dough forms, cover the bowl with a tea towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it doubles in size. 3. Prepare the Filling In a small bowl, mix 125 grams of lemon curd with 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to thicken it slightly. 4. Assemble the Rolls Transfer the risen dough to a lightly floured surface and roll it out into a 30×40 cm rectangle (approximately 12”×16”). Spread the lemon curd mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Roll up the dough from the long side into a tight roll. Cut the roll into 12 equal pieces using a sharp knife or dental floss and place them in a greased 25x30 cm (10”×12”) baking dish. Cover the rolls with a tea towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes. 5. Preheat the Oven While the rolls are resting, preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) with the rack in the middle position. 6. Bake the Lemon Curd Rolls Once the oven has reached the desired temperature, drizzle the rolls with 100 millilitres of whipping cream to add moisture and richness. Bake the Lemon Curd Rolls for 25-30 minutes, or until they turn golden brown on top. 7. Prepare the Topping Slightly warm 100 grams of lemon curd to make it easier to spread. You can do this by heating it in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds or gently heating it on the stove. Once the rolls are out of the oven and still warm, use a spoon or spatula to spread the lemon curd evenly over the top of each roll. Due to the warmth of the rolls, the lemon curd is distributed evenly and seeps easily into the rolls. 8. Serve Serve the Lemon Curd Rolls immediately after adding the lemon curd topping for the best texture and flavour. The combination of the warm rolls and the tangy lemon curd creates a delicious treat. Enjoy!
