Directions

Prepare the dough:

  1. Activate the yeast: In a large bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
  2. Mix the dough: Add melted butter, eggs, flour, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead and rise: Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Prepare the fillings:

  1. Peach filling: In a saucepan, combine diced peaches, sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, until the peaches soften and the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let cool.
  2. Cinnamon filling: Mix softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl until a smooth paste forms.

Assemble the rolls:

  1. Roll out the dough: On a floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle (about 16×12 inches).
  2. Add fillings: Spread the cinnamon filling over the dough, then evenly distribute the cooled peach mixture on top.
  3. Roll and cut: Roll the dough tightly from the long edge and cut into 12 equal slices.
  4. Prepare the topping: In a small bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon for the cobbler topping until crumbly.

Bake the rolls:

  1. Arrange and rise: Place rolls in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, cover, and let rise for 30 minutes.
  2. Add the cobbler topping: Sprinkle the cobbler topping evenly over the rolls.
  3. Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

Make the glaze:

  1. Mix the glaze: Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle over warm rolls before serving.
