Ingredients

Dough:
3/4 cup warm water (105 degrees F (41 degrees C))
1/4 cup white sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon salt
Filling:
1/2 stick butter, at room temperature
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Strawberry Glaze:
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup pureed fresh strawberries
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt

Directions

1

Combine water, sugar, and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer. Allow yeast to bloom until foamy, about 10 minutes.
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.
3

Roll dough out to a 9x16-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.
4

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
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.
6

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