Easy Vegan Cinnamon Rolls Recipes

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!

Steps:

• Cream together sugar, shortening, and salt. Whip in applesauce, cornstarch, and lemon juice until smooth. Add flour, soy milk, and yeast until dough forms a ball.
• Knead on a floured surface for several minutes, then let rise in an oiled, covered bowl until doubled in size, about 2 hours.
• Roll dough into a rectangle, about the size of a cookie sheet. Combine sugar and cinnamon for filling; cover dough with mixture; it will seem like a lot, but it turns out better if you use all of it.
• Roll the dough up into a cylinder, and cut into 6 rolls, keeping the loose end of the roll on the bottom. Let rolls rise on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper until doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 20 to 30 minutes.
• While rolls are baking, combine powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla for icing in a bowl.
• Remove rolls from the oven. Let cool for about 10 minutes, then drizzle icing over the tops. Serve warm!
