Pro Tips for Success
🔹 Don’t overfill – Too much filling can leak out.
🔹 Use cold dough – Easier to handle than room temp.
🔹 Try different fruits – Raspberries, strawberries, or peaches work too!
🔹 Add a streusel topping – For extra crunch, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar before baking.
Variations & Swaps

🍓 Mixed Berry – Use raspberries + blackberries.
🍫 Chocolate Twist – Add mini chocolate chips to the filling.
🥥 Tropical Version – Swap blueberries for diced mango + coconut flakes.
Serving & Storage Tips
- Best served warm – Fresh from the oven!
- Store leftovers in the fridge for 2 days (reheat in microwave).
- Freeze unbaked rolls – Wrap tightly and bake when needed (add 2-3 extra mins).
