Ingredients

For The Dough:

  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 1 Tbsp yeast
  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 cups warm water
  • 3 Tbsp vegan butter melted
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 cups flour

For The Filling:

  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup vegan butter melted
  • 1 Tbsp flour

For The Glaze:

  • 1/4 cup plant based milk (warmed)
  • 3 Tbsp vegan butter melted
  • 2 Tbsp pearl sugar

Instructions

  • Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the 1/4 c warm water. Allow to rest 10 minutes.
  • Add all the other ingredients for the dough and mix well. Cover and let rest until dough has doubled in size, about 15-30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Punch down dough and knead for about 5 minutes on floured surface. Roll into a large rectangle as thick as a pencil.
  • Mix the filling ingredients in a bowl and spread it over the whole surface of the dough. Using a sharp knife, cut dough into strips across the short side of the rectangle. Roll each strip loosely to make spirals, slightly tucking and pressing the end into the bottom. Place the spirals in a greased 9"x13" pan. For tighter cinnamon rolls, use a 9"x9" pan.
  • Bake until the crust is golden brown, about 25-35 minutes. Cook longer for chewier, cook less for softer.
  • Combine the glaze ingredients in a bowl and brush over the baked cinnamon rolls. Sprinkle on the pearl sugar. Bake for another 5-10 minutes so the sugar will stick to the rolls.
