Instructions

  1. For the filling, combine strawberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan; cook over medium heat until thickened. Blend until smooth and cool.
  2. In a stand mixer, mix flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Add warm milk, butter, and egg; knead until smooth. Let rise until doubled in size.
