Night eyes Fitz , I have made some of that strawberry, vanilla bean jam today also, the smell is wonderful and the taste divine, sounds like a nice idea making rolls with it.

Made a batch of EDC brioche tonight with a real mix of flour as have finally emptied the flour cupboard.
Seeded granary, strong white, whole meal and 00. Hope it is not too heavy. Doing overnight rise in fridge.

Soaking posh raisins overnight with orange zest, juice, and orange flower water.
Will add cinnamon and spices tomorrow and try to make a Christmassy bread to take with me out to lunch.

Will try to photo and report IDC.

This was a hit a mix of flours inc wholemeal and granary.
But would a ke again with white flour too and vary flavours depending n seasons.

Used paper muffin cases and made 24. This is portion control and also useful for visitors and no wastage.

After overnight rise in fridge, knocked back and brought to room temp. Rolled out to large rectangle.
Brushed with melted  butter.
Sprinkled with Demerara sugar, cinnamon and mixed spice. Spread soaked mixed fruits on top.
Rolled up the shortest width to make long sausage.
Cut into 24 pieces.
Put in paper cases.
Proved approx 40 mins in warm sunlight room (winter here)

Baked 18to 20 mins
Oven at 230 then put in and turn down to 200.

Drizzle icing when cold. Yummo.

They certainly do and I like the smaller size serving too DJ.  Guess they freeze well?

DJ what a brilliant idea to do them smaller. They look so lovely I'd be eating too much if it was a large one. But then I would still eat lots of the smaller ones. ;D
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Freeze brilliantly, take out one at time to have with cuppa.
Portion control for DH, without him knowing!

They totally fill the muffin cases as they prove and bake.
