Dairy & Egg Free Cinnamon Rolls

Delicious, fluffy cinnamon rolls without eggs or dairy.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/4 tsp rapid-rise yeast
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/2 cup of coconut oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp coconut palm sugar

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl in the microwave at 30 second increments, heat the almond milk and 3 Tbsp coconut oil until warm and melted .
  • Transfer mix to a large mixing bowl and sprinkle on yeast. Let activate for 10 minutes.
  • Add 1 Tbsp sugar and the salt and stir.
  • Add in flour 1/2 cup at a time, stirring as you go (you may not add it all). The dough will be sticky and too thick to stir.
  • Transfer to a lightly greased bowl (a bit of coconut oil works perfectly). Cover with a towel and set in a warm place to rise for about 1 hour.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a thin rectangle. Brush with 3 Tbsp melted coconut oil and top with 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 - 1 Tbsp cinnamon.
  • Tightly roll up the dough.
  • Then with a serrated knife or a string of floss, cut the dough into 1.5 - 2 inch sections and put into a pan.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and let the dough rise in the pan while oven is preheating.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until slightly golden brown.
  • Let cool for a few minutes and then serve immediately.
