Ingredients
Scale
Dough
- 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
Filling
- 2 cups diced peaches (fresh or canned)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Frosting
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: Dissolve yeast in the warm milk with a pinch of sugar and let it sit until frothy, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, combine granulated sugar, melted butter, salt, eggs, and flour. Mix in the yeast mixture until well incorporated. Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. Cover and let the dough rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, about 1 hour.
- Make the Filling: In a bowl, combine diced peaches with brown sugar and ground cinnamon. If the peaches are very juicy, toss them with a tablespoon of flour to thicken the filling.
- Assemble Rolls: Roll out the dough into a large rectangle on a floured surface. Spread the peach filling evenly over the dough. Roll the dough tightly into a log shape and cut into 12 equal slices. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish. Cover and let them rise for 30 minutes until slightly puffed.
- Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the rolls for 25 minutes or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.
- Prepare Frosting: Beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until the frosting is creamy and thick.
- Finish: Drizzle the cream cheese frosting generously over the warm rolls before serving to enjoy a luscious and sweet finish.
Notes
- If using fresh peaches, ensure they are diced finely and not too juicy to prevent soggy rolls.
- For a thicker filling, toss juicy peaches with a tablespoon of flour before spreading.
- Letting the rolls cool slightly before frosting helps the frosting hold better without melting completely.
- These rolls can be stored in an airtight container and reheated gently before serving.
