Blueberry Preserves for the Homestead Pantry | Blueberry Lemon Rolls

Hey friend, its blueberry season here and I always take advantage of the good prices and preserve some in various ways for the homestead pantry. Today we are making Honey Vanilla Blueberry Jam and Blueberry Syrup. I'm always trying to come up with different ways to use what I preserve so I'll show you how I transformed my cinnamon roll recipes to use the blueberry preserves!
Thanks for watching,
Kelsey

Lemon Blueberry Rolls
For the Rolls:
1 1/4 cups whole milk
2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
1 tsp granulated white sugar
4 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp granulated white sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 tbsp vanilla
2 tbsp lemon zest
For the Filling:
1 stick of softened butter
2 tbsp lemon zest
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 brown sugar
4 -6 oz blueberry jam
For the Icing:
4 oz cream cheese, softened
4 tbsp butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup powdered sugar
4 tbsp blueberry syrup(or jam)
To start, bloom your yeast. Mix your active dry yeast, sugar, and warm milk together and let sit for 10 minutes.
Next, in a large bowl of a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, mix flour, salt and sugar together.
To the dry ingredients add the whisked eggs, vanilla, lemon zest and softened butter and mix.
Add in the yeast mixture and mix until everything is blended. Switch to a dough hook and knead on medium speed for 7-10 minutes until the dough pulls away from the edges of the bowl, forms a ball and springs back when pressed.
Form the dough into a ball. Place the dough in a large, greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and place in a warm place to rise, , for 1- 1 ½ hours, or until the dough doubles in size.
Grease a 9x13" casserole dish and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Once the dough has had a chance to rise, remove it from the bowl, punch the dough to release the air, and roll it out on a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough into about an 18 x 12 inch rectangle. It should be about ¼ inch thick.
Next, spoon the prepared filling over the dough and spread it evenly.
Roll up the dough tightly into a long log shape starting from the short side. Cut of a bit off the ends to make the log even. Cut 12 rolls about 1 ½ inches wide using unflavored floss
Place the rolls in a greased 9x13" casserole dish and pour room temperature heavy cream in between each roll. Cover them with plastic wrap and let them proof in a warm spot for about an hour, or until they have doubled in size.
Once the rolls have proofed, bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a light golden color.
Once rolls have cooled, cover with icing. Enjoy!

[@DebiLynn]

We live in southeastern PA (on the cusp of Montgomery and Berks counties)… This looks very similar to my cinnamon buns. These look really good ❤

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Ok, berks county is not too far! These are exactly that. I took my cinnamon roll recipe and altered it ☺️

[@maehsweet]

I just found your channel and enjoy it. That box looks like the box my local Mennonite store offers (we are in northwest Lancaster County). I really need to get some - my husband wants blueberry pie and I think he’d like the blueberry syrup as well.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you, I’m so glad! Blueberry pie filling , yum! I may be canning some of that as well. Nothing like summer fruit pie in the middle of winter! Thanks for watching 🤍

[@Shaimaa-ArtStudio]

The blueberries rolls look amazing! thank you for sharing your recipes with us, I will definitely add it to my recipe book! Yumm

Yay! Sure thing, enjoy ☺️🤍

I made this, it's so yummy 😋 now I'm going to try the syrup 😋

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

It is! I’m so glad I made this one, the syrup is super yummy too! Enjoy ☺️

[@maryegerton6848]

Oh yummy! This all looks so good. I am going to make those blueberry rolls but with strawberry jam 😊 I have two hives with beautiful honey bees just a-buzzin all around. The honey is so glorious and I will be harvesting a ton of it next month and it will be my main source of sugar. I am going to make some jams with it as well. Thanks for this great video. I just love your videos❤❤

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

I’m so glad you enjoyed, thank you! I’m living vicariously through you and your glorious honey! What a gift!

[@cindyupton7357]

I shop most at Amish stores and their produce markets. I’m in NW PA love knowing my veggies are grown out their back door. Not where ever!!!

[@susanmurten6178]

We have zero Amish or Mennonite communities or stores here unfortunately. We do have tons of upick/picked berry farms here though! We picked 55 lbs of organic blueberries, I've made blueberry pie filling and blueberry butter. I've frozen 40 lbs and have a few lbs left to do something with.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Those are great options too! Sounds like you’ll have lots of blueberry preserves to eat all winter!

[@becauseisaidso3213]

Hi Kelsey, I love your videos!!! I don't know how you do it. I have one 3 yr old and she won't let me out of her sight for a second . How do you get it all done?

[@EvelynWilliams-el7rc]

Yum!!! I have so much respect for you not eating all these wonderful foods you prepare. Prayers

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you so much! It’s been difficult 😂

[@lindakrieger6667]

Yum. What did you do with the crushed blueberries from the syrup? I was thinking you could maybe freeze it and use it in smoothies. ❤

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thanks! Yes, that’s exactly what I did, you could also make and can some blueberry butter!

[@lindakrieger6667]

@@seedandsparrowhomestead great idea!

[@darciclark4991]

I wish I liked the flavor of honey. I have tried a million different types, I think I might try coconut sugar or something.

[@majapicek5094]

There are different types of honey to choose from that have different intensity

[@iartistdotme]

Looks amazing so using tractor flavoring must be the secret! LOL

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Haha! Must be it! Thanks for watching ☺️

[@brendajones8948]

Wow Kelsey, those lemon blueberry rolls look amazing. Two questions, did you use fresh milled flour and could you taste the lemon? Really enjoyed this one, thanks for doing what you do!

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you ☺️ It was store bought AP. I have a surplus I’m working through that needs used first. Yes to tasting the lemon! If you really like lemon you could add lemon juice to the filling and icing too ☺️

[@TheMccuesRoost]

I'm on south central PA too. Do you mind sharing the store you got the blueberries at. I have not found any good deals yet on them. The place I go don't have a good harvest they are buying and reselling so ik they were overpriced 😂 we still bought a quart but the kids have almost ate them already.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

I got these from Hornings Market in Bethel PA. If you know of a local farmers market, that’s a good place to start too!

[@TheMccuesRoost]

@@seedandsparrowhomestead thank you. That's a little drive from me but not to far.

[@tracyg4783]

I really want a blueberry compote but I can’t find a canning recipe. Could you combine those 2 recipes and have a syrup with fruit in it?

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

I personally don’t ever combine recipes or alter so I’d wouldn’t do that, but I’ve got lots of approved recipes I can look through for you!

[@paulawallace6688]

Maybe chill the jam in frig. I don't know if it works just poped in my head while watching the video.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

I had it stored in the fridge for a day before I made it. I think this jam because it’s no pectin is just a tad runny! But it’s ok, still works and tastes great!

[@Cordelia0704p]

If you think the raspberries are nuts, grt 3 blueberry bushes (different varieties ap polination is better) ypu'll be drowning in them in 2-3 years.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Oh this is exciting! I have 12 😂😬 but it’s only been 2 years and I e got nothing so far!

[@Cordelia0704p]

@@seedandsparrowhomestead all of the sudden they will explode and you'll have more Jam and syrup than you know what to do with :)
