Step-by-Step Instructions for Strawberry Cinnamon Rolls
  1. In a medium saucepan, combine strawberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, then blend until smooth. Refrigerate to cool.

  5. Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Cool slightly in the pan while preparing the glaze.
