Ingredients

• 240 ml Almond milk
• 75 grams Vegan butter
• 7 grams Active dry yeast
• 400 grams All-purpose flour
• 50 grams Granulated sugar
• 1 tsp Salt
• 100 grams Brown sugar
• 1.5 tbsp Ground cinnamon
• 75 grams Vegan cream cheese
• 100 grams Powdered sugar
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Warm the almond milk in a small saucepan over low heat until it's warm but not hot (about 38°C or 100°F).

Step 2

Remove from heat, add vegan butter and stir until melted, then sprinkle the yeast over the warm milk. Let it sit for about 10 minutes until frothy.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture.

Step 4

Mix everything together until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease a baking dish.

Step 7

Roll the dough out on a floured surface to form a rectangle about 0.5 cm thick.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together. Spread softened vegan butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture on top.

Step 9

Starting from the long edge, gently roll the dough into a log, then slice into 12 equal pieces.

Step 10

Place the slices into the prepared baking dish, cut-side up, and let them rise for another 20 minutes.

Step 11

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

Step 12

While the rolls are baking, prepare the frosting by beating together vegan cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 13

Once baked, let the rolls cool slightly before drizzling with the cream cheese frosting.

Step 14

Serve warm and enjoy your Vegan Gifflar Cinnamon Rolls!
