#KGgrassfed baked goods blackberry blueberry bread breakfast brunch dessert glaze holidays Kerrygold kid-friendly pastry recipe sweet sweet rolls sweets

Black and Blue Sweet Rolls with Lemon Glaze

It’s the time of year for fresh fruit and farmer’s markets, and I love it! I know I have berries on the brain lately, but I just can’t help it. When the weather warms, I just seem to prefer fresh fruit or tutti fruity desserts, Recently I received some pure Irish butter from Kerrygold as a part of the their loyalty program, and I knew exactly what I wanted to make with it. Dessert pastry with fresh berries, of course!

black and blue sweet rolls with lemon glaze | Mama Harris' KitchenWhat I love about Kerrygold’s butter, aside from it’s pure deliciousness, is that it’s made with milk from grass-fed cows that are free of growth hormones. It’s perfect for baking because of the higher butterfat content that leaves pie crust flakier and everything so delectable. I decided to make a fruity version of cinnamon rolls, but without the cinnamon. Instead, I’d fill it with blackberries and blueberries, a bit of sugar, and a delicious lemon glaze that pairs perfectly. Allow me to introduce you to black and blue sweet rolls with lemon glaze. They’re the perfect blend of sweet and tart without being overbearing and are a delicious choice for breakfast or brunch. Of course, I don’t follow the rules so this is a treat I could snack on anytime of day.

Ingredients for the Sweet Rolls Dough:

(adapted from this dough recipe from A Beautiful Mess)

  • 3 tablespoons warm water
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2.5 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) Kerrygold unsalted butter
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 cups unbleached bread flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/3 cup all purpose flour
  • zest of one small lemon (about 1 teaspoon)

(AD) There has been a lot of cooking going on this year, so I’ve tried to make life a bit easier by getting creative with my leftovers. These pulled pork totchos are a great example of leftovers with a few key ingredients to create something new to keep our meals exciting. Adding a few key ingredients like @lamorenausa adobo peppers and jalapeños and carrots definitely livens up something simple. La Morena peppers are hand selected, using only the highest quality peppers to bring you authentic home style flavors of Mexico. I purchased my La Morena items from my local Safeway, but you can find them at your favorite grocery store in the international food section. #PayItForwardwithLM #VivaLaMorena #WeCanWithLaMorena 
 
INGREDIENTS:
- 32 oz tater tots
- 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend + Pepper Jack)
- 2 cups prepared bbq pulled pork (check my pulled pork sliders recipe!)
- 1/2 can La Morena Adobo Peppers & Sauce
- 2 tablespoons sour cream 
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
- 1 cup pico de Gallo
- 1/2 cup guacamole
- 3 chopped green onions 
- 3-4 La Morena jalapeños and carrots, sliced

INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare tater tots as instructed, in air fryer or oven. Heat oven to 450°. 
Cover the bottom of a large cast iron skillet with the cooked tater tots. 
Top with 1 1/2 cup of cheese. 
Combine the chopped adobo peppers and sauce with the prepared bbq pulled pork. Spread the pulled pork mixture on top of the tater tots, then top with the remaining cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
Top with sour cream, ranch, pico de Gallo, guacamole, green onions, and sliced jalapeños and carrots.

Enjoy!! 😋

This year I’ve created Cranberry Pistachio Citrus Cookies to share as my contribution. 🍪 I know that a lot of things have turned “virtual” throughout this year, but a little virtual bake-off is a fun way to connect with some of your favorite people!

Hello Instagram fam! 💖 There’s some new faces around here and it’s been a while since I showed mine!

I’m Dawn, creator of Mama Harris’ Kitchen, and I’m so glad you’re here with me! In this space I share my family-friendly recipes for all occasions, whether it be a 30-minute meal for those busy weeknight dinners or a full spread for entertaining a crowd - and everything in between.

Mama Harris’ Kitchen began back in 2012, in fact it’s 8 years this month! 🥳  What started as a way to document my newfound cooking hobby while managing my “new” life as a stay-at-home wife and mom to a 1 and 3 year along with teens and preteens, and it quickly grew into what it is now - a recipe resource for busy families like mine that enjoy flavorful and comforting home-cooking using pantry staples along with fresh and local ingredients as often as possible. 

🍿Five fun facts about me:
1. I LOVE elephants! 🐘 I collect a lot of elephant items, whether it’s trinkets or  artwork, notepads etc. I love what elephants symbolize and I truly love anything elephant related.
2. I’m a total plant lady! 🌱 I have about 35 houseplants, give or take, and there’s still more on the list of wants. Plants have become such a peaceful outlet for me, and I feel that they really center me within my space. I love the element plants bring to your space and the feel of your home with them in it, and new leaves are so exciting!
3. I have seven tattoos and I have plans for about eight more. 💉 Those that know me aren’t surprised, but those that follow me here tend to find it a bit surprising. 🙃
4. I’ve been a mother for a long time, over half my life! I’ve also been a lot of different “types” of mom - teen mom, single mom, working mom, stepmom, stay at home mom, PROUD mom, military mom, mother in law - the list goes on. No matter what, motherhood looks different for everyone and there’s unique challenges and experiences each mother faces. Please be gentle with yourself! ❤️At the end of the day we’re all just trying our best!
5. I’m a bit of an introvert, and often struggle with the “social” aspect of social media. I tend to go silent sometimes, but I’m working on it.

☀️Thank you for joining me here!
