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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
