Quick jam roll
Description
The baking is simple and quick. This recipe for a fast jam roll is perfect for busy housewives who don't have time for complicated pastries, as well as for those who need to feed unexpected guests. All you need is a pack of ready-made dough and a little of your favorite jam. 1. You can, of course, make the puff pastry yourself if desired. Preparing it won't take much time, but you can also use store-bought dough. Roll out the dough on a floured surface until it at least doubles in size. 2. If the jam is very runny, you can sprinkle the surface of the dough with starch. Then spread the jam in a thin, even layer. 3. Carefully roll up the dough to form a tight roll. If desired, tuck in and seal the edges to prevent the filling from leaking during baking. 4. Place the roll on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush all sides with egg yolk beaten with a fork. 5. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown. 6. Once the quick jam roll is done, let it cool thoroughly, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
