Ingredients

Scale

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 packet active dry yeast (2 ¼ tsp)
½ cup granulated sugar
¾ cup whole milk (warm)
¼ cup unsalted butter (melted)
1 large egg
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 cup fresh strawberries (chopped)

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine warm milk and sugar; sprinkle yeast on top and let sit for 5 minutes until frothy. Add melted butter and egg.
In another bowl, whisk flour and salt together; gradually mix into the yeast mixture until combined.
Knead dough for about 8 minutes until smooth and elastic; place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled (about 1 hour).
Prepare filling by mixing chopped strawberries with cinnamon and sugar.
Roll out dough into a rectangle; spread softened butter, then sprinkle strawberry mixture evenly on top.
Roll tightly from one end to form a log; slice into 1-inch pieces.
Place in a greased baking dish; allow to rise again while preheating oven to 375°F (190°C) for about 20 minutes. Bake for approximately 25 minutes until golden brown.

Notes

Use ripe fresh strawberries for the best flavor.

Don’t skip the rising time; it’s essential for fluffy rolls.

Experiment with other fruits like raspberries or blueberries if desired.
