VERY SIMPLE FRUIT FILLED KOLACHES

Very Simple Fruit Filled Kolaches image

This is very simple to make. Time does not include standing time. I don't know the size of fruit pie filling, so I just guessed. I don't usually measure out my frosting ingredients, so this is just a guess. Feel free to adjust it.

Time 45m

Yield 24 kolaches

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

48 ounces frozen sweet roll dough
20 ounces pie filling, your choice of flavor
1/4 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons milk

Steps:

Divide the dough into 24 balls. Flatten each ball to about 3 1/2 inches round. Spoon some pie filling onto the center of each.
Fold two opposite edges of dough over the filling, pinching together, but leaving the ends opened. Place on a baking sheet sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 20-30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Uncover rolls and bake them 10-15 minutes, until golden. Place each kolache on a wire rack over a paper towel (or something you can throw away as it will get messy) to cool.
Mix sugar and milk and drizzle on warm kolaches.

Tips:

Make sure your dough is cold before rolling it out. This will help prevent it from sticking to your work surface and will also make it easier to work with.
If your dough is too sticky, you can add a little more flour. However, be careful not to add too much flour, as this will make your dough tough.
When filling your kolaches, be sure to leave a little space around the edges so that the dough can rise.
Bake your kolaches until they are golden brown. The baking time will vary depending on the size and type of fruit you are using.
Let your kolaches cool slightly before serving. This will help prevent the filling from leaking out.

Conclusion:

Fruit-filled kolaches are a delicious and versatile pastry that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be filled with a variety of fruits, making them a perfect option for any occasion. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make delicious fruit-filled kolaches at home.
