Preparation time: 40 minutes Baking time: approximately 10 minutes Total time: 50 minutes Servings: 12 Ingredients: - 5 large eggs - A pinch of salt - 5 ml sweetener (or to taste) - 4 tablespoons cold water - 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice - 65 ml oil (preferably sunflower) - 120 g white flour - 30 g cornstarch - 8 g baking powder - 3 medium oranges - 250 g mascarpone cream - 100 ml liquid cream - 10 g Bourbon sugar - Natural food colorings (green, red, yellow - a teaspoon of each) - A pinch of cocoa (for cones) - Powdered sugar with rum flavor, to taste Preparation: 1. Preparing the dough: Start by separating the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until you achieve a firm foam. This is an essential step to ensure a fluffy texture. Then, gradually incorporate the yolks, sweetener, cold water, and orange juice. 2. Adding dry ingredients: Add the oil, flour, cornstarch, and baking powder. Gently mix using a spatula to keep the air in the dough. 3. Creating the design: Divide the dough mixture into several cups. Add natural food colorings to each cup, so you achieve the desired colors for decoration. In each cup, also add a teaspoon of flour to thicken the dough, making it easier to apply with a piping bag. 4. Sketching the pattern: Use parchment paper to sketch the desired pattern. You can opt for Christmas trees, pine branches, and cones. Place the paper in the freezer for 5 minutes to harden. 5. Baking the roll: Once the pattern has hardened, fill it with the colored dough using a piping bag. Then pour the remaining dough into the tray and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (medium heat) for about 10 minutes. Be careful! Bake the roll until it turns white and slightly golden. If you leave it too long, it will have an unpleasant omelet taste. 6. Cooling and rolling: After baking, remove the roll onto a kitchen towel sprinkled with flavored powdered sugar. Carefully roll it up, using the towel to help, and let it cool completely. 7. Preparing the filling: Meanwhile, peel the oranges and cut them in half. In a bowl, beat the mascarpone cream with the liquid cream and Bourbon sugar until you get a smooth and fluffy mixture. 8. Filling the roll: Carefully unroll the roll, fill it with the mascarpone cream, and add the orange halves. You can also roll it using plastic wrap to maintain its shape. 9. Final cooling: Leave the roll in the fridge until serving. When ready, sprinkle powdered sugar on top for a festive look. Serving suggestion: This delicious roll pairs perfectly with a cup of fruit tea or sparkling wine, adding a touch of elegance to your holiday table. Calories and nutritional benefits: One serving of this roll contains approximately 180 calories, making it a lighter choice due to the use of mascarpone and oranges. Oranges are an excellent source of vitamin C, helping to strengthen the immune system. Possible variations: You can experiment with different flavors, such as caramelizing the oranges for a more intense taste or adding a dash of cinnamon to the mascarpone cream. Additionally, instead of oranges, you can use other seasonal fruits like strawberries or kiwi. Frequently asked questions: 1. Can I use whole wheat flour? White flour provides a fluffier texture, but you can substitute with whole wheat flour, keeping in mind that the texture of the roll will be different. 2. How can I store the roll? You can keep it in the fridge for up to 3 days, but it is recommended to enjoy it freshly made for the best taste. 3. Can it be frozen? Yes, this roll can be frozen, but it is recommended to wrap it well in plastic wrap. This Christmas roll recipe with oranges and Christmas trees is not just a dessert but a tradition that can become part of your celebrations year after year. Enjoy every bite and cherish the moments spent with loved ones! Bon appétit!
