I decided that I had to make some Cinnamon Rolls for Angela’s Bed in Breakfast guest series. Warm rolls with a glaze are perfect in this freezing weather. It also helps to start up the oven in the morning :). These rolls can be baked in the morning or baked a day before and served warm. I love adding fruit to my bread. The pureed strawberries in the dough keeps the breads extra moist and you need less sugar and glaze to eat these up. Use any berries that you like!

To make these gluten-free see my GF Pumpkin cinnamon Rolls recipe.
