Easy Christmas wreath made with cinnamon scroll mix, morello cherries, and cherry jam. Can be made ahead of time for convenience.
Ingredients:
  • 508g packet Cinnamon Scrolls With Glaze baking mix
  • 100ml milk, warmed
  • 80g unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 egg, lightly whisked
  • 220g (3/4 cup) cherry jam
  • 120g (3/4 cup) pitted morello cherries, drained, coarsely chopped, 1-2 tbs juice reserved
  • Edible gold leaf, to decorate
Instructions:
  • Prepare a 20cm ring pan by greasing it and lining it with a ring of baking paper.
  • Make the scroll dough as directed on the packet by mixing the milk, butter, and egg until you reach the end of step 5.
  • Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out to a 30 x 40cm rectangle. Spread jam over the dough, leaving a 2cm border along one long side. Sprinkle cherries evenly on the jam layer. Roll up the dough tightly from the jam-covered side to seal the filling inside. Cut the rolled dough into 12 scrolls and place them, cut-side up, in the baking pan.
  • Cover the pan with plastic wrap and a clean tea towel. Let it rest in a warm place for 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (or 160°C fan forced). Bake until golden and cooked through, about 30-35 minutes. Let it rest in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  • Mix the icing sachet from the baking mix and 1 tablespoon of reserved juice in a small bowl. Add more juice gradually until you reach a thin icing consistency. Drizzle the icing over the wreath and garnish with large gold leaf pieces. Serve the wreath warm.
