Ingredients

  • For the Dough:
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) instant yeast
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • For the Peach Filling:
  • 2 cups diced fresh or canned peaches (drained if using canned)
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • For the Glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 23 tablespoons milk or cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
  2. Stir in melted butter, eggs, salt, and flour. Knead until smooth and elastic, then cover and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  3. Meanwhile, in a saucepan, cook peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch over medium heat until thick and bubbly. Stir in butter and let cool.
  4. Roll out dough on a floured surface into a large rectangle.
  5. Spread peach filling evenly over dough and roll tightly from the long edge.
  6. Slice into 12 rolls and place in a greased baking dish. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 25–30 minutes or until golden brown.
  8. Whisk glaze ingredients until smooth. Drizzle over warm rolls and serve.

Notes

  • Add chopped pecans or walnuts to the peach filling for crunch.
  • Use peach jam or puree for more intense flavor.
  • Substitute brown sugar glaze for vanilla glaze for a caramel twist.
  • Refrigerate overnight before baking for a make-ahead option.
  • Use dental floss or serrated knife for clean roll cuts.
