Dairy Free Cinnamon Rolls

Dairy-Free Cinnamon Rolls are a soft, fluffy treat that brings all the warmth and sweetness of the classic cinnamon roll without any dairy. These rolls are perfect for anyone following a dairy-free diet or looking for a lighter, yet indulgent, breakfast or dessert option. With a tender, slightly sweet dough that’s swirled with cinnamon and sugar and topped with a simple dairy-free glaze, these cinnamon rolls are a deliciously comforting treat everyone can enjoy.

The dough for dairy-free desserts is made using plant-based milk, such as almond, oat, or soy milk, in place of regular milk, and dairy-free butter or margarine to keep the rolls tender and rich. The combination of these ingredients results in a dough that’s just as soft and light as traditional cinnamon rolls. Yeast is used to help the dough rise, creating fluffy layers that are perfect for absorbing all the sweet cinnamon filling.

The cinnamon filling is made with a blend of brown sugar, cinnamon, and a bit of dairy-free butter. When rolled up, this mixture creates a beautiful swirl throughout the dough. As the rolls bake, the sugar melts into the dough, creating a gooey, caramelized center. The result is a sweet, aromatic treat with the perfect balance of cinnamon and sugar.

For the finishing touch, these dairy-free rolls are drizzled with a simple dairy-free glaze made from powdered sugar, plant-based milk, and vanilla extract. The glaze adds a touch of sweetness and gives the rolls a nice, glossy finish that makes them irresistible.

Dairy-Free Cinnamon Rolls are perfect for a cozy breakfast or brunch. They also make a wonderful treat to serve at holiday gatherings or any time you’re craving something sweet and comforting. Whether you’re dairy-free or simply looking for a delicious alternative, these cinnamon rolls will fill your kitchen with the wonderful smells of cinnamon and vanilla, making them a perfect indulgence that everyone will love.

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 1 cup warm almond milk 110°F
• 1/2 cup sugar divided
• 1/3 cup coconut oil melted
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
• 1/2 cup brown sugar

Instructions

 

• In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm almond milk along with 1 tablespoon of sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
• Add the remaining sugar, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine.
• Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
• Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
• Roll the dough out into a large rectangle on a floured surface. Spread melted coconut oil over the dough, then sprinkle with brown sugar and ground cinnamon.
• Roll up the dough tightly from one end to the other, then cut into 12 even pieces.
• Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, cover with a damp cloth, and let them rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Dairy Free Cinnamon Rolls warm!
