Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 packets of fast-rising or active yeast (8g each)
4.5 cups all-purpose flour + some till you reach a non-sticky consistency
1.5 cups almond milk
1 chai tea bag
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg replacement or regular egg
1/2 tsp of salt
1/4 cup vegan butter (melted)
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 tbsp maple syrup
2 tsp Simply Organic Vanilla Extract
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup vegan butter (cold or room temperature)
1/2 cup brown or white sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup vegan cream cheese or regular cream cheese
1/4 cup vegan butter (softened)
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp Simply Organic Vanilla Extract

Steps:

  • Into a small bowl add 1 cup flour and yeast. Stir and set aside.
  • To a small pot, add almond milk and teabag. Heat for 5 or so minutes or until warm.
  • Into a large bowl whisk together the warm milk tea infusion, brown sugar, egg replacement, salt and melted butter till well combined.
  • Into the large bowl add the flour and yeast mixture. Whisk for around 2-3 minutes or until everything is well combined and lots of bubbles have developed. Now stir in the remainder of the flour, slowly, and add more as you need. You want it to be pliable but not too sticky. Knead for 5-10 minutes and add flour to the surface area to make the process easy.
  • Grease the sides of a large bowl and add in your dough. Add oil to the top of your dough and place a damp cloth over the top of the bowl. Place in a warm place for around 15-30 minutes.
  • While your dough recipes prepare your sticky sauce by adding all your ingredients into a pot and simmer on low heat till completely melted. Whisk/stir constantly to avoid burning. Once ready remove from heat and let it cool. This should only take a few minutes.
  • You can now preheat your oven to 350F and grab a baking dish - I used a 16″L x 9″W x 2.50″H.
  • Once your sticky sauce has cooled add it to the base of this baking dish and make sure it's spread around evenly.
  • Once your dough has risen punch a hole into the middle of the dough (this is very satisfying) and let it rise by double once again.
  • Using a rolling pin roll out the dough into a large rectangle, around 20 X 14 X 1 but use whichever dimensions work best for you and your baking dish!
  • Once you have flattened the dough, sprinkle with some brown sugar and cinnamon (add as much or as little as you'd like). Roll the dough width-wise, keeping it tight and cut into around 12-14 rolls. Place them onto the sticky sauce and set them aside to rise till doubled in size.
  • Once ready, bake for 25-35 minutes.
  • To make your icing, simply add your ingredients into a deep bowl and blend using hand mixer for around 1-2 minutes.
  • Once your cinnamon buns are ready then spread over the icing and enjoy these babies hot!
  • They last for one week in a tightly sealed container, keep at room temperature.

THE WORLD'S EASIEST CINNAMON ROLLS



The World's Easiest Cinnamon Rolls image

Easy cinnamon rolls with just 7 ingredients and no complicated steps. Just proof, roll out, and bake! Plus, they're vegan and SO delicious, fluffy, and gooey!

Provided by Minimalist Baker

Categories     Breakfast     Dessert

Time 1h55m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 Tbsp vegan butter* ((such as Earth Balance))
1 packet instant yeast* ((or use rapid-rise yeast // 1 packet yields ~ 2 1/4 tsp))
1 cup unsweetened plain almond milk*
1 Tbsp organic cane sugar*
1/4 tsp salt
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour*
3 Tbsp vegan butter* ((such as Earth balance // melted))
1/4 cup organic cane sugar*
1/2 - 1 Tbsp ground cinnamon ((to taste))
2 Tbsp vegan butter* ((such as Earth balance // melted))
Simple Powdered Sugar Glaze (see step 8)
Vegan Cream Cheese Frosting

Steps:

  • DOUGH: In a large sauce pan (or in a bowl in the microwave at 30-second increments), heat the almond milk and vegan butter until warm and melted, never reaching boiling. Remove from heat and let cool to 110 degrees F (43 C) or the temperature of bath water. It should be warm but not too hot or it will kill the yeast.
  • Transfer mixture to a large mixing bowl and sprinkle on yeast. Let activate for 10 minutes. Then add 1 Tbsp sugar and the salt and stir.
  • Next add in flour 1/2 cup (68 g) at a time, stirring as you go (you may not add it all). The dough will be sticky. When it is too thick to stir, transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead for a minute or so until it forms a loose ball (be careful not to overmix). Rinse your mixing bowl out, coat it with avocado or olive oil, and add your dough ball back in. Cover with plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size (see photo).
  • FILLING: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a thin rectangle (the thickness of the dough should be about 1/4-inch). Brush with melted vegan butter and top with sugar and desired amount of cinnamon.
  • Starting at one end, tightly roll up the dough and situate seam side down. Then with a serrated knife or a string of floss, cut the dough into 1.5 - 2 inch sections and position in a well-buttered 8x8-inch square or comparable sized round pan (you should have about 10 rolls as original recipe is written). If preparing the cinnamon rolls the night before, stop here, cover the pan, and refrigerate overnight, then proceed with the next step in the morning.
  • TOPPING: Brush with vegan butter (melted) and cover with plastic wrap. Set on top of the oven to let rise again while you preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C).
  • Once the oven is hot, bake rolls for 25-30 minutes or until slightly golden brown. Let cool for a few minutes and then serve immediately.
  • Optional: Frost with dairy-free cream cheese frosting or a simple mixture of 1 cup (112 g) organic powdered sugar and 1-2 Tbsp (15-30 ml) almond milk.
  • Best when fresh, though they will keep covered at room temperature for ~2-3 days.
  • FREEZING: You can make the rolls up to the point of putting in a baking dish (step 5), and instead, freeze them in a freezer-safe container. Then, thaw the night before in the fridge. Once completely thawed, proof covered with a towel in a greased baking dish as your oven preheats, then bake as instructed.

Provided by Brittany at ilovevegan.com

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 22

2/3 cup warm water
1/3 cup + 1 tbsp warm soy or almond milk
1/3 cup + 2 tbsp sugar
2 3/4 tsp active dry yeast
¼ tsp salt
¼ cup + 1 tsp coconut oil, melted
3 cups + 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
¼ cup vegan butter or coconut oil (plus extra)
1-2 tsp cinnamon
¼ cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar) (plus extra)
1/3-1/2 cup raisins
1/3-1/2 cup pecans, chopped (plus extra)
¼ cup brown sugar
2 tbsp vegan butter or coconut oil
2 tbsp pecans (optional)
¼ cup soy or almond milk
Cashew Drizzle:
½ cup raw cashews, soaked
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
¼ cup icing sugar
2-4 tbsp almond milk (plus more to thin, as necessary)

Steps:

  • Combine all dough ingredients in a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment. Knead for 6-8 minutes or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  • Coat the dough ball in a light amount of canola oil, place in a large bowl and cover with a damp dish towel. Let the dough ferment at room temperature until doubled in size.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into an approx. 19" X 16" rectangle. Spread evenly with 1/4 cup vegan butter or coconut oil, 1 tbsp cinnamon, 1/4 cup coconut or brown sugar, raisins and pecans.
  • Starting from the longest edge closest to you, roll the dough away from you (encasing the filling inside.) Place the rolled dough seam side down and cut into 8 equal pieces.
  • Line an 8" cast iron skillet or baking pan with parchment paper, spread with a little bit of vegan butter or coconut oil, top with a sprinkle of coconut or brown sugar and some chopped pecans. Place a single cinnamon bun, cut side facing up, into the center of the pan and group the remaining buns around the center one. Cover with plastic wrap and a damp tea towel and refrigerate overnight to rise.
  • The next morning, take cinnamon buns out of the fridge and bring them to room temperature. Preheat oven to 300F. Bake cinnamon buns for 35-40 minutes. Important: About 1/3 of the way through cooking, cover them with a layer of aluminum foil to prevent them from getting too brown.
  • Combine all ingredients, bring to a simmer in a small saucepan and cook for 5-10 minutes over low heat. Pour immediately over warm cinnamon buns, working some of the pecans and raisins into the crevices on top.
  • Combine all ingredients in a high speed blender, blend until smooth and creamy. Add more almond milk to thin if necessary. Drizzle over nearly cool cinnamon buns for the best appearance. (For cashew frosting: Reduce almond milk to 1 tbsp. Do not thin with additional almond milk. Chill before whipping with a whisk and spreading over cooled cinnamon buns.)

THE BEST EVER VEGAN CINNAMON ROLLS RECIPE BY TASTY



The Best Ever Vegan Cinnamon Rolls Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: vegan butter, almond milk, vegan butter, organic sugar, active dry yeast, flour, salt, vegan butter, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, powdered sugar, almond milk, vanilla extract

Provided by Merle O'Neal

Categories     Desserts

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons vegan butter, to coat the foil pan
2 cups almond milk, at room temperature
½ cup vegan butter, melted
¼ cup organic sugar
1 packet active dry yeast
5 ½ cups flour, divided
1 teaspoon salt
¾ cup vegan butter
¾ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons almond milk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Generously rub two disposable foil pie pans with vegan butter.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the almond milk, melted butter, and sugar. The mixture should be just warm, registering between 100-110˚F (37-43˚C). If it is hotter, allow to cool slightly.
  • Sprinkle the yeast evenly over the warm mixture and let set for 1 minute.
  • Add 5 cups flour and 1 teaspoon of salt to the milk mixture and mix with a wooden spoon until just combined.
  • Cover the bowl with a towel or plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise for 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  • After 1 hour, the dough should have nearly doubled in size.
  • Remove the towel and add an additional ½ cup (95g) of flour and salt. Stir well, then turn out onto a well-floured surface.
  • Knead the dough lightly, adding additional flour as necessary, until the dough just loses its stickiness and does not stick to the surface.
  • Roll the dough out into a large rectangle, about ½-inch (1 cm) thick. Fix corners to make sure they are sharp and even.
  • Spread the softened vegan butter evenly over the dough.
  • Sprinkle evenly with brown sugar and cinnamon.
  • Roll up the dough, forming a log, and pinch the seam closed. Place seam-side down. Trim off any unevenness on either end.
  • Cut the log in half, then divide each half into 7 evenly sized pieces. About 1½ inches (8 cm) thick each.
  • Place 7 cinnamon rolls in each cake pan, one in the center, six around the sides. Cover with plastic wrap and place in a warm place to rise for 30 minutes.
  • To prepare the frosting. In a medium-size mixing bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, almond milk, and vanilla until smooth.
  • Remove plastic wrap. Bake the cinnamon rolls in a preheated oven at 350˚F (180˚C) for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown.
  • While still warm, drizzle evenly with frosting.
  • Enjoy!

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 1h20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 cup lukewarm water
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 -4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup vegan margarine
1 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons cinnamon
1/4 cup maple syrup or 1/4 cup brown rice syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
raisins

Steps:

  • DOUGH:.
  • Combine yeast, sugar, and water in a small bowl. Let sit for 10 minutes in a warm place. If your yeast does not bubble, it is dead and the dough will not rise. Throw out the mixture and start again with new yeast. You can mix the dough in a bread machine, mixer with a dough hook, or by hand.
  • BREAD MACHINE/MIXER INSTRUCTIONS: Using your breadmachines dough cycle or in your mixers bowl, combine the yeast mixture, nutmeg, salt, and flour. Mix dough until smooth and elastic.
  • HAND MIXING INSTRUCTIONS: In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture with the nutmeg and salt. Add the flour in batches, stirring after each addition, until the mixture forms a cohesive ball of dough (it will pull away from the sides of the bowl). You will need about 3 1/2 cups of flour. Turn out onto a floured counter top and knead until dough is smooth and elastic. This can take up to 15 minutes. Flour your work surface frequently to prevent sticking.
  • Spray a large bowl with non-stick spray (or use one tablespoon of oil) and place dough inside. Cover with a clean towel and let rise in a warm area for 1 hour. While the dough is rising, make the filling.
  • FILLING: Mix margarine, sugar, cinnamon, maple syrup, vanilla, nuts and/or raisins (if using) in a small bowl until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Punch dough down and divide into 2 pieces. Put 1 piece of dough back into the bowl and cover to prevent it from drying out. Place 1 piece on a floured work surface. Pat dough into a rectangle. Using a rolling pin, roll out dough into a 9X13 rectangle. Spread half of the filling mixture onto the dough using a spatula, leaving a 2-inch border at the bottom. Start rolling up the dough starting at the top left-most corner and working your way along the length of the dough. Try not to stretch the dough too much when rolling. Continue rolling until you reach the edge of the filling. Moisten the plain strip of dough (below the filling) with water and roll the dough down to seal. Let the roll rest while you finish the second roll.
  • With the seam side down, cut each roll into 4 equal pieces. Place, cut side down, in an oiled 9-inch square baking pan or in the middle of a baking sheet lined with parchment. Cover with a towel and let rise for 30 minutes.
  • Place rolls in preheated 350 F oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and filling is bubbling. Let cool in pan for 15 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients for the most accurate results.
  • If you don't have a stand mixer, you can make the dough by hand. Just be sure to knead it for at least 10 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
  • When rolling out the dough, use a light touch. You don't want to press down too hard, or the dough will become tough.
  • Be generous with the cinnamon sugar filling. The more filling you use, the more delicious your cinnamon buns will be.
  • Bake the cinnamon buns until they are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  • Let the cinnamon buns cool for a few minutes before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.

Conclusion:

These vegan cinnamon buns are the perfect way to start your day or enjoy as a special treat. They are soft, fluffy, and packed with cinnamon sugar flavor. Plus, they are easy to make and can be made ahead of time. So next time you are craving a sweet and satisfying snack, give these vegan cinnamon buns a try. You won't be disappointed!
