Warm strawberry scrolls are a delightful and simple dessert that combines the sweetness of strawberries, the tanginess of lemon zest, and the unique texture of buttermilk. This recipe is perfect for a cozy evening treat or an impressive dessert for guests. With just a few ingredients, you can create a delicious and aromatic dish that will leave everyone wanting more.
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Wash and dice the strawberries into small pieces.
- Place the diced strawberries in a medium bowl and sprinkle with the 2 teaspoons of sugar. Mix gently and set aside.
- In another mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour and lemon zest.
- Gradually add the buttermilk to the flour mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.
- Lightly flour a clean countertop or board and turn the dough out onto it.
- Gently knead the dough a few times until smooth, but be careful not to overwork it.
- Roll the dough out into a rectangle, approximately 1cm thick.
- Evenly spread the sugared strawberries over the surface of the dough.
- Starting from one of the longer edges, gently roll the dough into a tight log, encasing the strawberries inside.
- Cut the log into equal pieces, roughly 2-3cm wide, to form individual scrolls.
- Place the scrolls cut-side up in a baking dish or on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each scroll.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the scrolls are golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
- Serve warm, optionally with a drizzle of icing or a dusting of powdered sugar for added sweetness.
Tips:
- For best results, use fresh strawberries. If using frozen strawberries, make sure to thaw and drain the excess liquid to avoid making the dough too wet.
- Zest the lemon finely to ensure the zest is evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- If you don't have self-raising flour, you can make your own by combining 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour with 3/4 tsp of baking powder and a pinch of salt.
- Buttermilk can be substituted with a homemade version by mixing 1/3 cup of milk with 1 tsp of lemon juice or white vinegar. Let it sit for a few minutes before using.
- To enhance the flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract to the dough.
- Keep an eye on the baking time as oven temperatures can vary. The scrolls are done when they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Warm strawberry scrolls are a quick and easy way to bring a touch of sweetness to any gathering. With minimal effort, you can create a beautiful and tasty dessert that showcases the fresh flavors of strawberries and lemon zest. Remember to follow the tips for the best results and enjoy the delightful aroma and taste of your freshly baked scrolls.
