Smoked Salmon Spinach Rolls

Smoked Salmon Spinach Rolls are easy and tasty appetizers, especially for the holiday season.

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 18 minutes

Additional Cooling Time 15 minutes

Total Time 43 minutes

Ingredients

• 6 oz (170g) frozen spinach + pinch of salt and 2 tablespoon water
• 5 eggs, mixed
• 1 cup all purpose flour, 135g
• 1/2 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 4 oz whole milk
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 3 tablespoons olive oil

Filling:

• 7-8 tablespoons cream cheese, room temp.
• 4 oz smoked salmon, 113g (More if you wish)

Topping:

• Sesame Seeds
• Serve with cheery tomatoes and rosemary

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375F (180C)
2. Cook spinach in the skillet until defrosted and looks cooked, 5 to 6 minutes at medium-high heat. Then add a pinch of salt and a bit of water. Transfer to blender or food processor then process until smooth in texture, almost like a paste. Water helps to get it going. I like to precook it first because it blends better in my opinion. It cooks fast, and just enough time for the oven to preheat.
3. Mix eggs in a large bowl, then add flour, olive oil, baking powder, salt and black pepper, and blended spinach. Make sure the bowl is large enough. I would recommend using a hand mixer to combine the mixture together, although a heavy-duty whisk will do the job just fine.
4. Now, line your baking sheet (9x13 or similar size) with parchment paper.
5. Pour spinach mixture, shake to take out any bubbles, and spread so we have an even layer.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 19 minutes.
7. Remove from the oven, then from the baking sheet onto the large clean cotton kitchen towel.
8. If the parchment paper sticks, carefully peel it, then make a roll with a kitchen towel, until you have the filling ready.
9. If you have wax paper line a large parchment paper under the spinach roll.
10. Drizzle or brush a bit of oil on the inside where before spreading the cheese. Make sure the cream cheese is at room temp. for easier spreading.
11. I like to slightly shave the end of the further end with the sharp knife just to make it fit better when we finish rolling. Cut shorter sides just a millimeter or two off the edge.
12. Spread cream cheese evenly then add smoked salmon all over. As you can see in the picture, i separated large pieces so I could fit them all over the roll. You can of course use more salmon than I did but it is not necessary.
13. Roll it back into a roll trying to make it as tight as possible. I used wax paper to help me to roll them wrap them up and refrigerate them for at least 15 minutes before slicing them into pinwheels.
14. Now after it chills in the fridge, take it out, then using a sharp knife cut the roll in th half, then that half in another half, and that way your small rolls or pinwheels will look equal in size.
15. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, or everything bagel if you prefer, then sere with cheery tomatoes and beautiful fresh rosemary.

We all love Cinnamon Rolls, but these Cinnamon and Sugar Crescent Rolls are so good that you will definitely make them over and over again.

A sweet pastry treat known as cinnamon and sugar crescent rolls is created with crescent-shaped dough that has been rolled in butter, cinnamon, and sugar.

They are often baked and served warm and can be eaten for breakfast or as a dessert. Although there are several commercial brands of this kind of crescent roll at grocery stores, I feel like most people prefer to create their own.

When you make cinnamon and sugar crescent rolls at home, you can vary the recipe, the sweetness ratio, and the size and form of the rolls. that being said, they are most defiantly way more delicious than those from the can.

I love baking pastries like this. I am actually really good at it but the downside of that is that I only try these pastries and “donate” the rest to my family, friends, or neighbors.

The Best Cinnamon Rolls

I guess they are lucky ducks in my baking scenario. Hey, I am not complaining and they most certainly will never say no to my homemade baked goods so everyone is happy!

Now, onto these tasty Cinnamon and Sugar Crescent Rolls. 

What can I say, they are filled with butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon.

This recipe is foolproof so I know you will without a doubt in my mind succeed in making these on your own. 

If you do not have a stand-up mixer that is perfectly fine, although you will have to use some elbow grease to create a perfectly smooth dough.

However, it is durable because I made it many times before without my stand mixer, Betsy.

I know some people really dislike cinnamon and I get it. This dough is good with sweet or savory things. You can spread butter and jam, or Nutella which is our all-time favorite.

Easy and tasty baked goods!

Prep Time 10 minutes

Bake Time 18 minutes

Additional Time 1 hour 20 minutes

Total Time 1 hour 48 minutes

Ingredients

Starter

• 1 pack dried yeast (1/4 oz)
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1/4 cup milk, warm to the touch

Dough

• 5 cups all-purpose flour (about 630g), plus a few tablespoons more for dusting working area
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 eggs, well beaten
• 1 cup warm milk
• 2 tablespoons oil, plus for greasing bowl for the dough

Filling

• 1/2 stick softened unsalted butter, spredable
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup ground pecans or walnuts (it's also known as Pecan Flour)
• 1 tablespoon cinnemon

Brush on Rolls:

• 1 egg + 1 tablespoon of water

Instructions

Activate Yeast

1. It's not necessary if you have instant dry yeast, but I like to do it. So warm up milk for about 20 seconds in the microwave-safe bowl or a cup until warm to the touch, then add sugar and dried yeast.
2. Mix and allow the yeast to start to bubble.
3. When you see yeast get bubbly and thicken on the top it is ready. It usually takes about 2-3 minutes, depending on the temperature. Never use hot milk or water.
   

Prep Dough

1. Measure and combine flour, salt, and sugar. Mix it together. Place everything in the stand-up mixer bowl.
2. Make a small well in the middle and add activated yeast, oil and eggs.
3. Using the kneading attachment of your mixer start mixing slowly warm milk.
4. Adjust the mixer to a higher speed and keep kneading for about 3-4 minutes or until the dough is becoming a ball and pulling away from the sides of the mixer bowl.
5. Dust your working surface (countertop) and knead it for a minute or so.
6. Transfer dough to a well-oiled larger bowl and cover. Place dough either in the oven or microwave so it could rise. If your oven has a proof setting this is a perfect time to use it, if not just keep it in the turned-off oven. Allow it to rise for about 30 to 45 minutes.
7. It will double in size. Knead again. Split the dough into two equal balls.
8. Roll out the dough to a circle about 1/4 inch thick.
9. Using a pizza cutter cut into 8 triangles, then cut the little slits at the top for easier rolling but not necessary. I just like to do it.
10. Spread room temperature butter on each from one end to the other evenly. You can slightly soften it in the microwave if it's not at room temperature.
    It would really hard to spread it is not.
11. On top of the butter, lightly press in brown sugar, ground pecans (or walnuts), and cinnamon mixture. Roll from the top toward the pointy end.
12. Place it in the sheet pan and cover the pan with a kitchen towel and keep it in the warmest area to rise for at least 30 minutes to one hour.

Baking

1. Preheat oven to 400F and bake them for 18 minutes or until golden brown. Do check on them after 12 minutes. Read Notes

Notes

Baking time also depends on your oven, and baking dish. If you are baking in the ceramic dish, then bake at a lower temperature such as 350 degrees Fahrenheit, I would do the same if you choose to bake it in cast iron, however, for a regular baking sheet pan I would go to 400F and bake for about 18 minutes or until they are nicely golden brown.

You know your oven best but I wanted you to know that not all ovens are created equal and baking dishes do matter in this case.

Well, I wrote a whole different post and deleted. It kinda started with my “emo” moments, then I thought “who in hell had the time to read it”, so I deleted it.

You came here for a recipe, so I’ll give you a recipe. I am actually thinking to start a new blog just to air my thoughts, and maybe some would follow. We’ll see ’bout that, cause I can write pretty openly and raw, so I’d probably be the anonymous author of the blog! Just kidding… not really! 🙂

 
Anyhow, today on the blog menu, we have a smoothie -a very delicious, refreshing, nutritious and easy beverage. 
I combined nectarine, kiwi, and blackberry together with almond milk and flaxseeds, then I added a dash of sugar to satisfy my sweet tooth.

It wasn’t necessary, but I was craving something sweet, so I added 1 teaspoon. Smoothies have become part of my daily intake. They boost my energy and uplift my mood, which at the times can be pretty feisty or completely opposite, you never know with me.

Let’s talk about the health benefits of this delicious Nectarine, Kiwi and Blackberry Smoothie

Flaxseeds

Some call it one of the most powerful plant foods on the planet. There’s some evidence it may help reduce your risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes.

That’s quite a tall order for a tiny seed that’s been around for centuries.
Omega-3 essential fatty acids, “good” fats that have been shown to have heart-healthy effects. Each tablespoon of ground flaxseed contains about 1.8 grams of plant omega-3s.

Lignans, which have both plant estrogen and antioxidant qualities. Flaxseed contains a fiber, both the soluble and insoluble types.

Lower blood cholesterol and blood sugar levels.

Reduce bone loss.

Nectarine

Fruits and vegetables with bright red, orange and yellow colors often contain a good amount of beta-carotene. Beta-carotene is an antioxidant that turns into vitamin A in the body.

The vitamin C in fruits and vegetables, including nectarines, is considered an important antioxidant that helps promote good health and may also have the power to protect your body from certain illnesses and diseases.

California Peaches, Plums and Nectarines report that vitamin C in nectarines may protect molecules from being damaged by free radicals and other chemicals that cause cellular changes.

Lutein is a nutrient that has been receiving more attention because of its health-protective benefits. Lutein is also considered an important antioxidant because it helps destroy the presence of free radicals in your body, which may decrease your risk of chronic diseases like cancer.
Nectarines also contain iron, folic acid, vitamin K, as well as naturally occurring sugars that help provide energy.

Blackberry

Much like spinach, raisins, apples, plums, and grapes, blackberries are rich in bioflavonoids and Vitamin C, but other nutritional benefits include a very low sodium count and having only 62 calories to a cup.

The dark blue color ensures blackberries have one of the highest antioxidant levels of all fruits. Antioxidants, well-known for lowering the risk of a number of cancers, are a huge bonus, but be aware the berries are best consumed in their natural state to get the full benefits.

Kiwi

Just enjoying a couple of kiwifruits each day may significantly lower your risk for blood clots and reduce the amount of fats (triglycerides) in your blood, therefore helping to protect cardiovascular health. 

The kiwifruit is an excellent source of vitamin C, and polyphenols, and a good source of potassium, all of which may function individually or in concert to protect the blood vessels and the heart. 

Fiber is also good for binding and removing toxins from the colon, which is helpful for preventing colon cancer. In addition, fiber-rich foods, like kiwifruit, are good for keeping the blood sugar levels of diabetic patients under control.
