Reasons to Love Lemon Rolls:

  • Irresistible Dough: The dough is soft and delicious. As you pull apart these lemon sweet rolls, you’ll already be savoring the goodness before your first bite. Picture the steam rising from the roll, revealing its soft and delightful texture. It’s perfection in every bite.
  • Convenient to Prepare in Advance: What makes these rolls even better is that you can get everything ready, put the rolls together on your baking pan, and then let them complete their final rise overnight in the refrigerator. This means in the morning, all you have to do is put the pan in the oven. And the best part? These treats aren’t limited to mornings; you can enjoy them any time of the day. They’re the ideal treat.
  • Elevate Your Baking Skills: Whether you’re a seasoned baker or just testing your skills after watching baking shows, making these lemon sweet rolls will showcase your talent and amaze your friends. And the good news is, they’re actually easy to make, making them one of my favorite weekend baking projects.

Helpful Tips:

  • Temperature Matters: Ensure success in baking by using ingredients at room temperature. Let them sit on the counter for about an hour before starting, avoiding extremes of hot or cold.
  • Orange Twist: To add variety, try using oranges instead of lemons. Just substitute the lemon with an equal amount of orange for delightful orange sweet rolls.
  • Storage Instructions: Keep your lemon sweet rolls fresh by storing them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If needed, they can be refrigerated for up to one week.
  • Reheating: While you can enjoy lemon sticky rolls at room temperature, they taste best when reheated. Simply microwave for 30-60 seconds. Add a small pad of butter, cover, and heat on a microwave-safe plate.
