Cinnamon Buns with Strawberries

6 servings

105 minutes

Cinnamon and strawberry rolls are a delightful combination of warm cinnamon aroma and refreshing strawberry sweetness. This recipe comes from American cuisine, where soft, airy pastries with rich flavors are loved. The dough is tender and slightly creamy thanks to the kefir, while the filling of brown sugar, cinnamon, and fresh strawberries gives the rolls a deep, layered flavor. After baking, the rolls are topped with cream cheese frosting, creating a perfect balance of sweetness and light tartness. These rolls are great for a cozy family breakfast or festive treat. They can be served warm to let the frosting melt into the tender dough, enhancing the enjoyment of each bite.

Cooking steps

1. Put 50 grams of butter on the stove with kefir, 50 grams of sugar, and salt. Wait for the butter to melt; if the mixture is very hot, cool it down before adding flour and yeast; the mixture should be warm but not hot.

   Required ingredients:

   • Butter: 50 g
   • Kefir: 300 ml
   • Sugar: 50 g
   • Salt: 1 teaspoon

2. In a large bowl, mix 2 cups of flour, yeast, kefir-butter mixture, and an egg. Gradually add flour but not all of it; the dough should come off your hands to avoid tough rolls (the dough should remain slightly sticky). After it rises, it won't be like that anymore. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.

   Required ingredients:

   • Wheat flour: 600 g
   • Dry yeast: 9 g
   • Kefir: 300 ml
   • Chicken egg: 1 piece

3. Roll the dough into a large rectangle. Mix the cane sugar with cinnamon. Spread 50 grams of butter on the dough and sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon mixture, then distribute sliced strawberries on top, sprinkle with flour, and roll into a log. Cut the log into pieces with a sharp knife and place in a greased pan.

   Required ingredients:

   • Butter: 50 g
