Instructions
Strawberry Filling
Start with the strawberry filling which will allow it time to cool while you then make the dough. Place the berries in a sauce pan with lemon juice. Bring heat to medium high. As the berries heat you should be able to mash them. Once berries appear heated through and have made their own juice add Swerve sweetener and salt. Continue to stir while allowing it to simmer. Reduce heat to low and sprinkle in xanthan gum. Cook about 5 minutes while constantly stirring and mixture will start to thicken. Once thickened turn off heat and set aside to cool. You should have about 1-1/4 cup.
Dough
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Add all ingredients for the dough into the food processor and process until combined. Place into a microwavable bowl and microwave for 2 minutes or melt over low heat on the stovetop. Stir together until well combined.
Wet hands because this dough is sticky and knead together.
Roll dough between two pieces of parchment paper to form a rectangle about 8 by 16 inches.
Assemble Rolls
Spread half cup of the strawberry filling onto the dough.
Roll the long side of the dough, peeling it off the parchment paper until it”s all rolled up and seam side is down.
Slice into 12 rolls and place rolls onto a greased pie dish.
Spoon another 1/2 cup strawberry filling over the rolls and bake for 20- 25 minutes or until golden brown and expanded in size and fluffy . Save any remaining filling to top after rolls are done.
Cream Cheese Frosting
While rolls are baking you can add the ingredients for the frosting to a blender or stand mixer and blend to combine well. Taste and adjust sweetener if needed.
Once rolls are hot out of the oven you an spread on the frosting and enjoy!
