How to make No-Yeast Eggless Strawberry Rolls
For these rolls, you need to prepare a strawberry jam first. You can make it days in advance or simply use store-bought strawberry jam if you are in a hurry. The next step is to cut the remaining strawberries into small pieces.
Now you can prepare the dough which takes no more than 10 minutes. In less than 15 minutes your rolls can be ready and ready to go into the oven. The dough is easy to work with, not too sticky, and easy to roll out. Â
For the dough, whisk together the sugar with lemon zest to release oil. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add plain yogurt, melted butter and milk and mix to combine. Knead for a few minutes until the dough is smooth and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
On a floured surface roll the dough into a 12×14 inch (30x35cm) rectangle. Spread strawberry jam leaving a 1 inch (2 cm) border. Spread the chopped strawberries.
Roll the dough and cut into 8 equal size rolls. Place the rolls on the prepared pan with distance between them. Bake the rolls for about 20-25 minutes until lightly browned.
In a medium bowl mix cream cheese with powdered sugar, lemon zest and vanilla and spread on top of the rolls.
