Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams all-purpose flour
- 7 grams instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 150 ml low fat milk
- 60 ml unsweetened applesauce
- 1 large egg white
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 100 grams raisins
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, salt, and sugar. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate microwave-safe container, gently warm the low fat milk to about 110°F (43°C) to activate the yeast. Be careful not to overheat as it can kill the yeast.
Add the warmed milk, unsweetened applesauce, egg white, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough begins to form. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.
Gently fold in the raisins and knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for approximately 8-10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a greased bowl. Cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 60 minutes or until doubled in size.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and roll it into a rectangle approximately 10x12 inches in size.
Sprinkle cinnamon evenly over the rolled-out dough.
Starting from the longer side, roll the dough tightly into a log and seal the edge. Cut the log into 8 equal rolls using a sharp knife or dental floss.
Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, leaving space between them for expansion. Cover again and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Once the rolls have risen, bake them in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your low fat raisin rolls warm or at room temperature.
