Ingredients

Filling

  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice seasoning
  • 3 tbsp melted vegan butter
  • ½ cup brown sugar

Icing

Instructions

  • Begin by mixing the flax egg together and set aside.
  • In a small bowl combine the vegan butter and almond milk together and heat for about 1 minute, stirring halfway through. At the conclusion of this process, the liquid should feel like warm bath water. Not piping hot (if too hot it could kill the yeast)!
  • In a large bowl, mix together the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Next add in the almond milk+butter combination along with the flax egg, water and pumpkin puree. Mix together until sticky. 
  • Place the dough on a floured work space in order to knead for a bit until you’ve got a smooth ball of dough. 
  • Place the ball of dough in a bowl covered with a paper towel or clean dish towel and let sit for about an hour until it’s doubled in size.

Filling

  • Combine all filling ingredients and set aside.

Assemble the Rolls

  • Preheat oven to 375°.
  • Transfer the dough from the bowl back to the floured work space. Roll the dough out into a rectangle until it’s about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Evenly spread the filling mixture all over the dough.
  • Starting with the end closest to you, roll the dough as tightly as you can until you have the dough in a log shape. Cut them into pieces that are 1.5-2 inches thick OR you can cut them first, then roll them individually.
  • Place each roll in a lightly greased baking dish and bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Icing

  • While the cinnamon rolls are baking, whisk together the ingredients for the frosting and set aside until rolls are done.
  • Once the rolls have finished, let them cool for about 10 minutes then top the rolls with the icing. Serve immediately and enjoy!
