Ingredients

• 0 For the Dough
• 1.25 cups almond milk
• 1 packet active dry yeast
• 0.25 cup coconut oil
• 0.25 cup granulated sugar
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0 For the Filling
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1.5 tablespoons cinnamon
• 0.25 cup coconut oil
• 0 For the Caramel Sauce
• 1 cup coconut cream
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 0.25 cup coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Warm the almond milk in a saucepan or microwave until lukewarm but not hot.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine warm almond milk and active dry yeast. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

Step 3

Add melted coconut oil and sugar to the yeast mixture and stir well.

Step 4

Gradually add the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder to the yeast mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon until a dough forms.

Step 5

Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Step 6

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Step 7

While the dough rises, prepare the filling by mixing brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.

Step 8

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle (approximately 16x12 inches).

Step 9

Brush the rolled-out dough evenly with melted coconut oil, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 10

Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the coconut oil brushed dough.

Step 11

Roll up the dough tightly from the long side. Cut into 12 even pieces and place them in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.

Step 12

Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap or a damp cloth and let the rolls rise for another 30 minutes.

Step 13

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 14

Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 15

While the rolls bake, prepare the caramel sauce. In a saucepan, combine coconut cream, brown sugar, and coconut oil. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves.

Step 16

Increase the heat to medium-high and stop stirring. Let the mixture bubble and thicken for about 5-7 minutes, turning golden brown.

Step 17

Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt. Let it cool slightly.

Step 18

Once the rolls are done, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before drizzling with warm caramel sauce.

Step 19

Serve warm and enjoy!
