Who doesn’t just love love pastry cinnamon rolls. I mean when I walk through an airport or maybe near a food court at a mall and there’s a CinnaBun store, the aromas make me weak in my knees! Yes, that’s the power of scent. 

Easy Lemon Rolls

These easy lemon rolls or buns have only four major ingredients. Now that’s simple. And, the way I love to make cooking for you.

The 4 ingredient lemon cheese buns are a kind of lemon bread because we’re using a pre-packaged bread dough.

Easy Lemon Swiss Roll Recipe

Now this is not a cake dough like you’re going to find in a swiss roll recipe. Yes, that’s more of a ‘cakey’ roll rather than a ‘breadeee’ roll. I love both of them!

• 1 large lemon, washed/dried, zest and juice
• PREPARATION: Flour for dusting, pinch of salt

Instructions

Dust a clean surface area with some flour.

Roll out the dough. Stretch somewhat into a about a 16x20” size.

In a small mixing bowl, combine and blend the mascarpone, one-half cup powdered sugar, lemon zest/juice and a pinch of salt.

Spread on the dough leaving about ½” from the edges.

Roll up the dough. Sliced into about 2-2 ½” pinwheels. Put in a greased flour dusted baking dish.

Notes

Using a clean flour sack cloth is perfect for easy turning of the pastry as you work with it. Just dust the flour sack kitchen towel with flour.
