Description

Warm brioche-style dough rolled around sweet cinnamon, brown sugar, and fresh diced strawberries.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 large eggs
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup strawberries, diced
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, warm the milk and 1/4 cup sugar until just warm to the touch (about 100–110°F / 38–43°C). Remove from heat. Stir in the active dry yeast and let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy. Meanwhile, melt the butter and crack the eggs into a large bowl.
  2. Add the foamy yeast mixture and melted butter to the eggs and whisk briefly. Gradually add the flour, salt, and cinnamon and mix until a soft dough forms. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  3. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour until doubled. After rising, roll the dough out into a rectangle on a floured surface. Spread a thin layer of softened butter over the dough, then evenly sprinkle the brown sugar, cinnamon (if you want extra), and the diced strawberries across the surface.
  4. Roll the dough up tightly from one long edge into a log and cut into 12 even rolls. Place the rolls into a greased baking dish, cover, and let rise another 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) while they rise. Bake the rolls for 25–30 minutes until they turn golden brown and sound hollow when tapped. Let them cool a little, then serve warm.

Notes

Serve warm with vanilla glaze, powdered sugar, or ice cream. Best the day they are baked but can be warmed the next day.
