What are these rolls called and where can I find a recipe for them?
Hi - I used to buy rolls like this every other morning when I worked in New York City. They were amazing and I just can't seem to find good ones anymore.
I have seem almost this exact type of roll in several different places, of varying quality. But it leads me to think this is some sort of classic type roll.
Does anyone know the origin of these or what they are called, other than raisin-walnut rolls? When searching around for those terms I mostly come up with deserts and cinnamon roll type breads. These only have a very mild sweetness to them and are more bread than desert. I have also seen them made with dried cranberries.
Are they Italian? Jewish?
If anyone can give me some clues it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
H
