Ingredients
4 c flour, white
1/4 c sugar
2 t instant yeast
1 t salt
1 1/4 c lukewarm milk
5 T melted butter, unsalted
1 T vegetable oil
2 ea egg

Directions
    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine 4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons instant yeast, and 1 teaspoon salt.
    Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/4 cups lukewarm milk, 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon melted unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, and 2 large eggs.
    Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough begins to form.
    Knead the Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
    First Rise: Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
    Shape the Rolls: Roll out the risen dough into a 12x18 inch rectangle. Evenly spread the raspberry-cinnamon mixture over the dough. Starting from the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log.
    Cut and Second Rise: Cut the log into 12 equal slices. Arrange the slices cut side up in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes, until puffy.
    Preheat Oven: Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
    Bake: Place the rolls in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
    Glaze and Serve: Once baked, remove rolls from the oven, let cool for 10 minutes, and then drizzle with lemon glaze. Serve warm.
