Description

Soft, sweet vegan rolls filled with apple, maple, and cinnamon.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup warm plant milk
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup plus more for glaze
  • 1/4 cup melted vegan butter
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup vegan butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 small apple, finely diced

Instructions

  1. Combine warm plant milk, yeast, and 1 teaspoon of maple syrup in a bowl. Let stand 5 minutes until foamy.
  2. Stir in the remaining maple syrup and melted vegan butter into the yeast mixture.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whisk flour and salt.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a shaggy dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth.
  5. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled.
  6. Punch down the dough. Roll it out into a rectangle about 12×18 inches.
  7. Spread the softened vegan butter evenly over the dough.
  8. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture over the butter. Scatter the diced apple over the top.
  9. Roll the dough tightly starting from the long edge. Cut into 12 equal rolls.
  10. Place rolls in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
  11. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
  12. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  13. Drizzle with extra maple syrup before serving.

Notes

  • If your kitchen is cold, place the covered dough in a slightly warm oven (turned off) to aid rising.
  • Use firm apples like Granny Smith for the best texture.
