#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.
