Strawberry Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients

• 0.75 cups warm water , 105 degrees F (41 degrees C
• 0.25 cups white sugar
• 2.5 teaspoons instant yeast
• 2.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

1. 1

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

2. 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. 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. 4

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

5. 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. 6

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

7. 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.
