Best 7 Quick Cardamom Rolls Recipes

GRANDMA GEORGIE'S CARDAMOM ROLLS

Steps:

• Cut the butter up into chunks, and place in a large mixing bowl. Pour the boiling water over the butter, and stir in the sugar, salt, and cardamom. Stir the mixture until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved, and let it cool down to about 105 degrees F/41 degrees C.
• Beat the yeast, eggs, and flour into the butter-sugar mixture to make a runny dough, lightly oil the top of the dough, and cover with a cloth. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Lightly grease a baking sheet, and set aside.
• Punch down the dough, and knead until soft and springy, about 12 minutes. Form the dough into golf ball-sized rolls, and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Let the rolls rise until double, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Bake the rolls in the preheated oven until the bottoms are browned and the tops are lightly golden, 12 to 15 minutes.

QUICK CARDAMOM ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Mix Bisquick, milk and egg until soft dough forms. Place dough onto surface lightly sprinkled with Bisquick; gently roll in Bisquick to coat. Knead gently just until smooth.
• Pat or roll dough into rectangle, 10x8 inches. Spread with butter. Mix granulated sugar and cardamom; sprinkle over dough. Roll up tightly, beginning at 10-inch side. Pinch edge of dough into roll to seal. Place sealed side down on ungreased cookie sheet. Cut roll at 1-inch intervals almost through to bottom, using scissors.
• Bake about 20 minutes or until light brown. Mix powdered sugar and warm water until spreadable; spread over warm rolls.

Steps:

• Make dough:
• In a large bowl combine water, butter, and sugar. Sprinkle yeast over mixture and let stand 5 minutes, or until foamy. Stir in eggs, salt and dry milk until combined. With a wooden spoon stir in 5 sups flour, 1 cup at a time, and stir mixture until a dough is formed.
• On a floured surface, knead dough about 10 minutes, adding enough of the remaining 1 cup flour to make dough smooth and elastic. Put dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat, and let rise, covered with plastic wrap, in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• Punch down dough and on floured surface with a floured rolling pin roll into a 15- by 20-inch rectangle. Spread butter over dough and sprinkle with granulated sugar, cinnamon and cardamom.
• With a long side facing you, roll up dough jelly-roll fashion and cut crosswise into approximately 1 1/2-inch-thick slices with a cut side down. Working with 1 slice at a time gently twist opposite ends of slice around twice to form a figure eight. Crimp ends together. Arrange rolls, a swirled side up, on a buttered baking sheet about 2 inches apart and let rise in a warm place until increased 1 1/2 times in bulk, about 1 hour.
• While rolls are rising, preheat oven to 350F.
• Brush tops of rolls with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar. Bake rolls in middle of oven until tops are pale golden, about 25 minutes.

CARDAMOM KNOTS

Steps:

• Start by making the dough. Place the cubed butter in a small saucepan with the milk. Heat over a low heat until the cubes of butter have completely melted, then remove from the heat and set to one side to allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes.
• Place the flour in a large bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough-hook attachment, and add the yeast to one side of the bowl and the salt, sugar and cardamom to the other. If you put the salt directly on the yeast it may kill it, which will stop your dough from rising.
• Gradually pour the warm butter and milk into the bowl with the flour,mixing all the time, using your hands or the dough-hook attachment, until a sticky dough forms. You may not need to add all the milk mixture, or you might need to add a little more milk - you want to add just enough to make a sticky but not wet dough.
• Dust your worktop lightly with flour, tip the dough out on to it and knead it for 5-10 minutes (or knead using the dough hook on the stand mixer) until the dough is no longer sticky and has become smooth and elastic. Grease the bowl in which you mixed the dough with oil, place the dough back in the bowl, cover with a tea towel or cling film and leave to rise at room temperature for 1-3 hours or until doubled in size. You can leave the dough to prove in the fridge overnight if you want these for breakfast!
• While the dough is rising, combine the filling ingredients in a small bowl to make a thick paste. Line 2 baking trays with baking parchment.
• Tip the risen dough out of the bowl on to a worktop lightly dusted with flour and fold it in on itself a couple of times to knock out any large air pockets.
• Roll out the dough thinly to make a very large rectangle measuring roughly 50 x 30cm. Spread the cardamom filling mixture all over the dough, making sure it goes right to the edges.
• Fold one of the short ends over two-thirds of the dough, then fold the remaining third over - as if you are folding a letter or making puff pastry. You should have one neat rectangle consisting of three layers of dough, and all the filling should be enclosed inside.
• Use a sharp knife to cut the dough into 12 even strips. Taking one of the strips, stretch out and twist it a few times. Tie it into a loose knot, tucking the edges in. Place the knot on a lined baking tray and repeat with the remaining strips, arranging them on the tray and leaving a few centimeters between each. Leave for 45 minutes at room temperature to rise again.
• While the knots are proving, preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Make the cardamom syrup by bringing the sugar, ground cardamom and 50ml of water to the boil in a small saucepan and letting it bubble for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat.
• Bake the buns for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown, then brush with the cardamom syrup as soon as they come out of the oven. Sprinkle with pearl sugar, if you wish, and serve warm.

CARAMEL ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine water, 2 tablespoons butter, bread flour, white sugar, milk powder, and yeast, in that order, in the bucket of a bread machine. Select the Dough cycle. Remove dough from the machine after the cycle is done, about 1 hour 45 minutes.
• Combine brown sugar, light corn syrup, and 1/4 cup butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Pour sauce into an 8-inch square baking pan. Sprinkle with pecans.
• Turn dough out onto a floured surface, punch it down, and roll into an 8x12-inch rectangle. Dot with 1/4 cup butter and sprinkle with cinnamon. Roll up and pinch seams together. Slice roll into 1 1/2-inch thick slices; place slices into the pan on top of the sauce. Set aside until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in the pan for no more than 3 minutes; place a sheet of waxed paper on top of the pan and invert so that sauce and pecans are on top.

SWEDISH CARDAMOM ROLLS

Steps:

• Dough: Brush a large bowl with butter; set aside. Place potato in a small pot of water and bring to a boil. Cook until fork-tender, 10 to 12 minutes; drain. Pass through a ricer or mash with a fork until smooth (to yield 2/3 cup); let cool slightly.
• Heat milk until warm to the touch (110 degrees on a thermometer). Transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer; add yeast. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Stir in butter, granulated sugar, potato, egg, flour, and salt until a ragged dough forms. Place bowl on mixer fitted with the dough-hook attachment; mix on medium-low speed, scraping sides and removing dough from hook a few times, until soft and pliable, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a lightly floured surface; knead into a ball. Transfer to buttered bowl (dough will be very soft) and cover with plastic wrap. (Dough can be covered and refrigerated at this point up to 2 days). Let rise in a warm place until almost doubled, 1 hour and 10 minutes to 1 1/2 hours. Brush two 6-cup jumbo muffin tins with butter; set aside.
• Filling: In a bowl, combine butter, granulated sugar, cardamom, orange zest, and salt. Mix until light and fluffy. Punch down dough; transfer to a lightly floured surface. Roll out to a 14-by-18-inch rectangle. Spread evenly with butter mixture, leaving a 1/2-inch border on far long edge. Starting at long edge closest to you, roll dough away from you into a tight jelly-roll shape. Transfer, seam-side down, to a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. Trim ends, then cut roll crosswise into twelve 1 1/2-inch-thick rounds with a serrated knife. Arrange, cut-sides up, in prepared tins; cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 8 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Remove rolls from refrigerator and place in a warm spot until almost doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove plastic and bake until browned on top and a thermometer inserted registers about 210 degrees, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool in tins on a wire rack, 10 minutes.
• Glaze: Meanwhile, melt butter; stir in honey. Brush rolls generously with mixture; sprinkle with sanding sugar. Remove from tins (if buns stick, run a knife around edges), and let cool at least 20 minutes before serving.

CARDAMOM SWEET ROLLS

Steps:

• Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water; stir to dissolve; set aside.
• Heat 1/2 cup milk in a small saucepan to just simmering; remove from the heat; add the 1/2 cup cut-up butter, stirring until melted; stir in 2 teaspoons of the cardamom, 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar and salt; allow the mixture to cool to warm.
• Pour the warm milk mixture into the large bowl of an electric mixer; add the yeast mixture then beat in the eggs one at a time; beat in 2 cups of the flour until smooth; add enough of the remaining flour to make the dough easy to handle.
• Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured board; knead until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes; place in a buttered bowl, turning to coat all sides with butter; cover, let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Heat oven to 350°; turn the dough out onto a floured board; roll with a rolling pin into an 18x12-inch rectangle; spread the 2 tablespoons of softened butter to within 1/2 inch of the edge of the dough; sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar combined with remaining 1/2 teaspoon cardamom.
• Roll the dough up tightly from the long side to form a cylinder; slice into 12 rolls.
• Place the cut rolls in a buttered 13x9 inch baking pan.
• Cover; let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes to an hour.
• Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes; remove from the oven and let stand 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, for glaze, combine confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup milk, 2 tablespoons butter and vanilla; stir until smooth.
• Drizzle the glaze over the rolls and sprinkle with chopped hazelnuts.
