Make This Honey Buns Recipe Even Better with Raspberries and Creamed Honey

It's Sweet to Share!

What is it about raspberries that just make them so irresistible? For me, it’s like they are a combination of both strawberries and lemons mixed into one perfect little berry. They are sweet, but also tart. However you want to describe them, they make this honey buns recipe absolute perfection!

With such an adorable name, you are sure to melt over these delicious rolls that are made with pure creamed honey and whole tart raspberries. 

Warning: This Honey Buns Recipe is Heavy and Dense 

This bread recipe is inspired from the 1983 edition of Southern Living Magazine. It is old school; back when every single recipe had to have butter + cream + everything else a cow makes. It’s a dense, heavy bread, but it’s also sweet and filling. 

If you want a less dense bread, that is more airy and fluffy, substitute water for the sour cream.

How to Make this Recipe

  1. This is a standard bread recipe, but made like cinnamon rolls.
  2. Instead of a brown sugar filling, you are going to make these delicious Raspberry Honey Buns filled with a creamed honey raspberry filling.
  3. You’ll roll out the dough, cover the dough with the delicious raspberry filling, and then roll the dough up tight like a pinwheel.
  4. Cut even circles out of the dough and place each circle face up to rise in the pan.
  5. Cook and cover with frosting!

Honey Buns Dough

  • 8 oz sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons raspberry juice

  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • teaspoon baking soda
  • 4 cups flour
  • 1 egg

Raspberry Filling

  • 1 cup raspberries
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons warmed creamed honey

Honey Icing

  • 1 tablespoon creamed honey
  • 1 teaspoon liquid whipping cream
  • 2 teaspoons powdered sugar

Instructions
 

Honey Buns Dough

  • Melt sour cream raspberry juice over low heat until warmed
  • Transfer to a mixing bowl with a dough hook and add yeast
  • Allow yeast to proof for 5 minutes
  • Stir in sugar and melted butter and yeast
  • Add salt, baking soda, 2 cups flour, and egg
  • Knead until mixture is smooth and combined
  • Continue to add flour in ½ cup increments until dough is tacky and pulls from the edges of the bowl
  • Let rise until doubled in size
  • On a floured surface, roll dough out to a large rectangle a half inch thick
  • Spread filling across the surface, edge to edge
  • Roll dough up lengthwise, pinch ends together, cut into whirlpools and press into prepared pans
  • I used a well greased muffin tin, but you can also use a casserole dish and place rolls 1 inch apart to allow room to rise
  • Rise for an additional 1 hour minimum
  • Bake at Fahrenheit 375°, 20 minutes, release from pan

Raspberry Filling

  • Stir raspberries and sugar together until raspberries start to release their juice
  • Add softened butter and warmed creamed honey
  • Stir just until mixture is combined

Honey Icing

  • Whisk all ingredients together until smooth
  • Spoon over rolls while still hot

Should I Use Fresh or Frozen Raspberries?

If you are like me, I’m stingy when it comes to food I can’t reproduce. Like raspberries, for instance. I will let them sit in my fridge for far too long, just because I hate not having them. 

Lately, I’ve started buying them in bulk and freezing them while they are still fresh. This recipe is great with either fresh or frozen raspberries. 

How Do I Get Raspberry Juice?

Pulverize raspberries in a blender or food processor, then strain out the seeds.

Some of my Favorite Baking Tools on Amazon

As an Amazon affiliate I may get a few pennies if you click on these links, but you don’t pay any extra!

I baked these honey buns in a muffin tin, but my favorite way to cook these types of rolls, sticky buns, cinnamon rolls or the like is in a high edge sheet cake pan.

And then of course, you must have a large wire rack for cooling and catching dripping icing.
