Ingredients

  • Dough

  • 2 cups almond milk – warm

  • 1/2 cup melted butter – warm

  • 1/4th cup sugar

  • I packet active dry yeast

  • 4 1/2 cups flour ( plus more for working dough)

  • Salt to taste

  • Cinnamon to taste

  • Filling:

  • 3/4th cup brown sugar

  • 3/4th cup vegan butter

  • Cinnamon (optional)

  • Glaze

  • 1 cup powder sugar

  • 2 tbsp water

  • 2 tsp vanilla

  • Dash of cinnamon

Directions

  • In a large bowl, whisk almond milk, melted butter, and sugar. Make sure your ingredients aren’t too hot – but just warm. (I suggest microwaving your butter for 45 secs)
  • Sprinkle yeast evenly over mixture and whisk – let sit for 5 mins or less (while yeast gets frothy)
  • Slowly add 4 1/2 cups flour and salt to the butter mixture & mix with a wooden spoon until combined
  • Add 1/2 cup flour and lightly kneed the dough until it doesn’t stick to the sides of your bowl
  • Place dough mixture in a lightly oiled bowl with a towel for 1 hour to double in size
  • Place dough on a clean, lightly floured surface. knead into a rectangle and roll the dough to 1 inch thickness
  • Combine your filling ingredients and add making sure to cover all sides
  • Roll at the base roll the dough evenly until you get a giant log – trim off uneven tips
  • Starting at the middle, cut the log into half and create thick cinnamon rolls
  • Place the rolls on a well oiled cake pan and set them in your oven on “warm” wrapped in a towel for 30 minutes to double
  • Once doubled cover with some dashes of cinnamon & place in the oven @ 350 for 25 mins or until golden brown
  • Combine all icing ingredients and add to cinnamon rolls once fresh out of the oven
  • Enjoy!
