Creating Strawberry Rolls is simple and rewarding. Just follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C), and grease a baking tray or line it with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
3. Add Butter: Cut in the softened butter using pastry cutters or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract.
5. Form the Dough: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until combined. Be careful not to overmix; it should form a soft dough.
6. Shape the Dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Roll it out into a rectangle, about ½ inch thick.
7. Add Strawberries: Evenly distribute the sliced strawberries across the rolled-out dough. Sprinkle with cinnamon if desired.
8. Roll Up: Starting from one long side, carefully roll the dough into a log shape, sealing the edges well.
9. Slice the Rolls: Cut the rolled dough into approximately 1-inch thick slices and place them on the prepared baking tray.
10. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until lightly golden and cooked through.
11. Cool: Once done, remove from the oven and allow the rolls to cool on the tray for about 10 minutes.
12. Glaze (Optional): If desired, drizzle icing over the cooled rolls for an added touch of sweetness.
13. Dust with Sugar: Before serving, feel free to dust the rolls with powdered sugar for an extra pop.
