Ingredients
- 500 grams all-purpose flour
- 10 grams instant dry yeast
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 250 milliliters unsweetened almond milk
- 75 grams vegan butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- 75 grams brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Warm the almond milk in a small saucepan over low heat until it is lukewarm. Remove from heat and add the yeast, dissolving completely. Let sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes foamy.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Add the yeast mixture along with 50 grams of melted vegan butter and the vanilla extract.
Step 3
Mix the ingredients until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Step 5
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon.
Step 6
After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle, approximately 40x30 cm.
Step 7
Spread the remaining melted vegan butter over the dough. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the buttered dough.
Step 8
Starting from one of the long sides, roll the dough tightly into a log, sealing the edges by pinching them slightly.
Step 9
Cut the log into 12 even slices and place them in a greased baking dish, leaving a little space between each bun to allow for expansion.
Step 10
Cover the baking dish with a cloth and let the buns rise for another 30 minutes.
Step 11
Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).
Step 12
Bake the buns in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
Step 13
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your vegan Gifflar!
