Ingredients for the Dough:
- 2 eggs
- 200 ml (1 cup) milk
- 600 grams (2 1/2 cups) flour
- 80 ml (1/3 cup) oil
- 45 grams (1/4 cup) sugar
- 1/2 tsp (4 grams) salt

Ingredients for the Topping:

Instructions:
Prepare the Dough:
In a mixing bowl, combine the milk, sugar, and dry yeast.
Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the yeast becomes frothy. Add the eggs, oil, and salt to the yeast mixture and mix well.
Gradually add the flour to the mixture, stirring continuously until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Shape the Rolls:
Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F).
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into small portions, shaping each portion into a roll.
Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Add the Topping:
Sprinkle each roll with sugar. Place 1 teaspoon of butter on top of each roll.
Top the rolls with tutti frutti, raisins, chopped almonds, and a bit of orange zest.
Bake:
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Baking time may vary depending on your oven.
Serve:
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack.
Serve warm and enjoy these delightful fruity sweet rolls!
