These berry jam buns are a brighter take on a cinnamon roll. You are definitely going to want to eat these warm. You start by making an enriched dough. Then you let that dough rise and spend some time in the refrigerator, which makes it much easier to roll out. Once you roll it out into a big rectangle, you top it with a thin layer of jam, some fresh berries, and some freshly grated lemon zest. Then you roll that up, and cut it into thick slices. The dough gets one more quick rise. Then you bake the rolls until golden, and top them with the cream cheese icing that gently melts into the top of the rolls and a sprinkle of freeze-dried berries.
