For an extra burst of strawberry flavor, consider adding finely diced fresh strawberries to the cinnamon-sugar filling. If you don't have fresh strawberries, you can use strawberry jam or preserves for the puree. Adjust the amount of sugar in the glaze accordingly, as jams are often quite sweet. To ensure even baking, rotate the baking dish halfway through the baking time. These rolls are best served warm, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat gently before serving. For a tangy twist, add a tablespoon of lemon juice to the glaze.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
10 mins
In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine warm water, white sugar, and instant yeast. Let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes, to allow the yeast to bloom and activate.
02
Step
1 hrs
Gradually add all-purpose flour to the yeast mixture. In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter; add it to the flour mixture. Incorporate the egg and salt. Mix until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rest until doubled in size, approximately 1 hour.
03
Step
10 mins
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into a 9x16-inch rectangle. Spread the softened 1/4 cup of unsalted butter evenly over the dough. In a separate small bowl, combine brown sugar and ground cinnamon; sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough. Roll the dough up tightly into a log and cut it into 12 equal pieces.
04
Step
5 mins
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
05
Step
25 mins
Place the cinnamon roll slices in the prepared baking dish. Gently cover the dish with a piece of aluminum foil. Allow the rolls to rise in a warm place for about 25 minutes.
06
Step
17 mins
Uncover the rolls and bake in the preheated oven until the centers are lightly golden brown, approximately 15 to 18 minutes. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-browning.
07
Step
5 mins
While the rolls are cooling slightly, prepare the glaze. In a medium bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, strawberry puree, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Beat by hand or with an electric mixer until the glaze is smooth and creamy. Spread the glaze generously over the warm cinnamon rolls.

Jun 26, 2025I found that 15 minutes was perfect for baking time in my oven. I suggest keeping a close watch and checking the rolls starting at 13 minutes.
