Ingredients

Filling

  • ½ stick butter, at room temperature
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Strawberry Glaze

  • 1 ½ cups confectioners' sugar
  • ¼ cup pureed fresh strawberries
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

Dough

  • ¾ cup warm water (105 degrees F (41 degrees C))
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • 2 ½ teaspoons instant yeast
  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1
Combine water, sugar, and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer. Allow yeast to bloom until foamy, about 10 minutes.

Step 2
Gradually add flour to the yeast mixture. Heat butter in a small microwave-safe bowl until melted; add to the flour mixture. Add egg and salt. Mix until a soft, sticky dough forms. Transfer dough to the counter and cover with plastic wrap. Let rest until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Step 3
Roll dough out to a 9×16-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Spread butter on top. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl; sprinkle over butter. Roll up dough tightly. Cut into 12 pieces.

Step 4
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Step 5
Place rolls in the baking dish. Gently cover with a piece of foil. Allow rolls to rise in a warm area, about 25 minutes.

Step 6
Uncover rolls and bake in the preheated oven until centers are lightly golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes.

Step 7
While rolls are cooling slightly, prepare the glaze. Combine powdered sugar, strawberry puree, vanilla extract, and salt; beat by hand or with an electric mixer until smooth. Spread over the tops of the rolls.
