Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold and cubed
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup strawberry rhubarb basil jam store-bought or homemade
  • 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish optional

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
  3. Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Pour in the milk and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together. Roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
  6. Spread the strawberry rhubarb basil jam evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  7. Starting from one long side, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Pinch the seams to seal.
  8. Slice the log into 1-inch thick rolls and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Brush the tops of the rolls with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
  10. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
  11. Allow to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
