Sweet Roll Recipe

1. Make One Loaf Bread Dough and roll out into a long rectangle. Apply a thin layer of Date Spread over the surface leaving 1/4 inch along one long edge free of spread.

2. sprinkle entire surface liberally with raisins. (Dried cranberries and other diced dried fruits make it extra-special!). Roll up the long way like a jelly roll and pinch seam closed.

3. cut 1-inch rolls by cutting all the way through with a sharp knife or scissors. Place rolls with cut side up on a lightly oiled cookie sheet, shaping into a circle and flattening slightly with hands. Let rise in a warm place for about an hour or until doubled.

4. Bake at 350F for about 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Lightly brush tops with pure maple syrup while hot (optional). cool on a wire rack then place in an airtight container until ready to eat.
