Dough
- 1 3/4 to 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (425 - 550 mL)
- 1 cup whole-wheat flour (250 mL)
- 2 Tbsp wheat germ (30 mL)
- 2 tsp instant yeast (10 mL)
- 3 Tbsp sugar (45 mL)
- 1/2 tsp salt (2 mL)
- 3 Tbsp canola oil (45 mL)
- 1 egg (1 )
- 1 cup warm milk (250 mL) (100°F - 115°F /37°C - 46°C)
Filling
- 1/2 cup canola oil margarine (125 mL)
- 1 cup brown sugar (250 mL)
- 1 tsp cinnamon (5 mL)
- 1/4 cup strawberry rhubarb jam (60mL)
- 1 cup sliced rhubarb (250 mL)
-
- In large bowl, combine 1 3/4 cup (425 mL) all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, wheat germ, instant yeast, sugar and salt.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mix and add canola oil, egg and milk. Mix ingredients incorporating more flour as needed to form a soft dough.
- As dough forms a ball, use hands to knead for about 5 minutes, adding more flour as needed. Dough should be soft and stretchy without being sticky.
- Cover dough and let rest for 15-20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in small bowl, combine margarine, brown sugar and strawberry rhubarb freezer jam.
- Spread half of jam mix in bottom of an un-greased 9×13-inch (23 × 30 cm) pan.
- Roll out dough on a floured board to form a 9×12-inch (23 x 30 cm) rectangle.
- Spread remaining half of jam mix over dough. Evenly distribute rhubarb pieces over dough.
- Roll dough up tightly, starting at the 12-inch (30 cm) side. Pinch edge of dough to seal the roll.
- Use serrated knife to cut dough roll crosswise into 12 equal pieces. Place dough pieces slightly apart on top of jam mix.
- Let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes or until doubled in size.
- Bake rolls at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Immediately turn upside down onto serving plate to let filling drizzle over rolls.
- Serve warm.
