Gluten-free Sweet Crescent Rolls with Jam
Enjoy these delightful gluten-free sweet crescent rolls filled with apricot jam. Made with a specially crafted gluten-free sweet yeast dough, these rolls offer a perfect balance of soft texture and fruity sweetness. Topped with a maple-oat milk glaze, they're ideal for a special breakfast, brunch, or as a sweet addition to your gluten-free dinner table.
Instructions
- Prepare the gluten-free sweet yeast dough according to its recipe. Allow it to rise as directed.
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On a surface lightly dusted with gluten-free flour, roll out the risen dough into a circle, aiming for a thickness of 3-4mm.
- Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, divide the circle into 12 equal triangular pieces, depending on your preferred roll size.
- Place a small spoonful of apricot jam (preferably heat-stable) on the wider end of each triangle.
- Starting from the jam-covered wider end, gently roll each triangle towards its point, creating a crescent shape.
- Arrange the rolls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each for rising. Shape them into crescents if desired.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup and oat milk to create a glaze.
- Using a pastry brush, gently brush the maple-milk glaze over the tops of the rolls.
- Allow the glazed rolls to rise for an additional 15-20 minutes in a warm, draft-free place.
- Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they're golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Serve warm and enjoy your gluten-free sweet crescent rolls with jam!
Notes
- Cut into 12 triangles to match the yield and keep roll sizes consistent.
- Gluten-free dough is fragile—roll gently and keep flouring the surface lightly to prevent sticking.
- Use a thick/heat-stable jam to reduce leaking and burning.
- Let them cool a bit before eating; gluten-free bakes firm up as they cool.
- Reheat briefly in the oven to refresh the texture.
