Easy VEGAN Cinnamon Rolls


Super Easy Cinnamon Rolls!!  So easy-  a 9 year old can do it.  Yes, my son made these without any assistance.  I only supplied him with a recipe  and suggestion on how to roll it out onto the counter.  They were delicious!! I only got the photo above, from that batch

**UPDATE -Luckily he has made them 4 times since that first batch, so I was able to get some more shots.  He absolutely loves making these.  He can whip them up in no time at all.  They have taken over his obsession with potatoes, well at least for now.  LOL!!**


VEGAN Cinnamon Rolls

Dough:
2 C Flour (he has used, whole wheat, white wheat, and added some barley flour when he was running low on the others.)
1 t Salt
1 T Baking Powder
4 T Vegan Butter
3/4 C Almond Milk

For Sprinkling:
2 t melted Vegan Butter
3/4 C Sugar (he used Palm Sugar)
1 T Cinnamon

Preheat oven to 450F.  In a large bowl, combine flour, salt and baking powder.  Cut in the butte, then using your fingers massage the butter into the flour mixture.  

Pour the Milk into the flour/butter mixture until the dough gets thick and soft.  Work the dough with your hands if necessary.  Ball up the dough and set it out on a floured surface.  Roll the dough into a long rectangular shape.  Brush the top with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar/cinnamon mixture.



Then just roll it up and cut into rolls.  I suggest cutting in the middle and working your way out.  Place the rolls in a greased baking dish.

Bake for 12-14 minutes, until golden brown and puffy.  Top with frosting (below)

Frosting:
1/4 C powder sugar
1T + milk or water

Add sugar to a bowl, and add just a bit of milk, stir up and add more as needed.  If you add too much liquid, you will need to add more sugar.  Stir until you get the desired consistency and pour over yummy cooked, but cooled a bit, cinnamon rolls. ENJOY!!
