Ingredients
– 3 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
– 1 cup milk
– 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1 large egg
– 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
1. – In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, salt, and yeast.
2. – In a separate microwave-safe bowl, heat the milk and melted butter until warm, about 1 minute. Stir to combine.
3. – Pour the warm milk mixture into the dry ingredients and add the egg. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
4. – Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
5. – Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
6. – Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles. Roll the dough out into a large rectangle, about 12×18 inches.
7. – In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the dough, then top with the sliced strawberries.
8. – Roll the dough tightly from the long side, creating a long log. Cut the log into 12 equal pieces.
9. – Place the rolls in a greased 9×13 baking dish. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
10. – Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
11. – Serve the Strawberry Cinnamon Rolls warm, with your favorite toppings or beverages.
Notes
For extra flavor, you can add a cream cheese frosting or a simple glaze to the warm rolls. Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
