If you are craving something sweet but do not want to wait around for dough to rise, these rolls are your new best friend. Using a simple two ingredient dough means you can satisfy your lemon cravings in record time.

I love making these on weekend mornings when I want a treat but do not want to spend all day in the kitchen. Just remember to keep your surface lightly floured so the dough does not stick while you roll it out.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup self rising flour
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a small baking dish.

  2. 2

    In a mixing bowl, combine the self rising flour and Greek yogurt until a soft dough forms.

  3. 3

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and roll it out into a rectangle.

  4. 4

    In a small bowl, mix the sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice together to create a paste.

  5. 5

    Spread the lemon mixture evenly over the dough, then roll it up tightly from the long edge.

  6. 6

    Slice the roll into even rounds and place them into your prepared baking dish.

  7. 7

    Bake for about 20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and fluffy.

💡 Tips

These are best enjoyed warm straight from the oven with a simple powdered sugar glaze drizzled on top. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. You can quickly reheat them in the microwave for a few seconds to get them soft again.
