For the Dough:

  • ¾ cup warm milk (110°F)

  • 2 ¼ tsp (1 packet) active dry yeast

  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

  • 2 large eggs, room temperature

  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

  • 3 ¾ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 tsp salt

For the Filling:

  • 1 ½ cups fresh or frozen huckleberries

  • 1 tbsp cornstarch

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

  • ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)

For the Vanilla Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

  • 23 tbsp milk

Instructions

1. Make the Dough:

  • In a large bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.

  • Mix in eggs and melted butter.

  • Gradually add flour and salt. Knead for 6–8 minutes (by hand or mixer) until smooth and elastic.

  • Cover and let rise in a warm spot for 1–1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.

2. Make the Filling:

  • Cook over medium heat until thickened, about 5 minutes. Let cool completely.

3. Assemble the Rolls:

  • Roll dough into a 12×18-inch rectangle on a floured surface.

  • Spread the cooled huckleberry filling evenly across the dough.

  • Roll tightly from the long side and slice into 12 rolls.

  • Place rolls into a greased 9×13-inch pan. Cover and let rise again for 30–45 minutes.

4. Bake:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

  • Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

5. Glaze:

 

  • Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.

  • Drizzle over warm rolls and serve!
