  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (approx.)
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp rapid-rise instant yeast
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 2 cups fresh raspberries
  • 3 tbsp icing sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
      • In large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, sugar, instant yeast, baking powder, salt and nutmeg. In separate bowl, whisk together egg, milk and 2 tbsp olive oil; stir into flour mixture until dough starts to form.
        Transfer to lightly floured surface; knead for 5 to 7 minutes, adding enough of the remaining flour, 2 tbsp at a time, until dough is smooth and no longer sticky.

      • Onc cool, drizzle with melted chocolate; let stand until chocolate is set.
