Description

Quick and fluffy vegan cinnamon rolls with an ooey gooey center and a delicious glaze, ready in about an hour.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup warm plant milk (oat, almond, or soy)
  • 2 and 1/4 teaspoons instant or rapid-rise yeast
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 4 tablespoons melted vegan butter
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour (plus extra for dusting)
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 5 tablespoons softened vegan butter (for filling)
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla or orange zest (optional)
  • 1 to 1 and 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons plant milk
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons vegan cream cheese (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • A tiny pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Warm the milk: Heat plant milk until warm (105 to 110 F) and stir in sugar and yeast. If using active dry yeast, let sit until foamy.
  2. Mix the dough: Add melted vegan butter and salt, then stir in flour until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead briefly: Knead by hand for 3-4 minutes or 2 minutes in a mixer. Lightly oil the bowl, cover, and let rest for 15 minutes.
  4. Fill and roll: Roll dough into a rectangle, spread with softened vegan butter, and sprinkle with filling ingredients. Roll tightly from the long side.
  5. Cut: Using floss, slice into 10-12 rolls.
  6. Pan and proof: Arrange rolls in a greased pan and let sit for 15 minutes.
  7. Bake: Bake at 375 F for 18-22 minutes until golden and soft.
  8. Glaze: Mix glaze ingredients and pour over warm rolls.

Notes

Use dental floss to cut the rolls for clean slices. You can store leftovers at room temperature for up to 2 days.
