Ingredients
- 1 tube of crescent rolls in a tube (Pillsbury is vegan)
- 2 Tablespoons of vegan butter divided
- ½ teaspoon of cinnamon
- 1 Tablespoon of brown sugar
- 3 Tablespoons of powdered sugar
- 1 Tablespoon of soy/almond/rice milk
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Pop open the crescent rolls and roll the dough into a ball, kneading it to work out the perforations.
- Using a rolling pin, roll it out into a rectangle.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of margarine over the dough. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon, and then sprinkle it onto the margarine.
- Roll the dough up into a long roll and use a sharp knife to cut it into 1-inch discs.
- Put the discs into a lightly oiled muffin tin (a baking sheet will do if you're short a muffin tin), and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Set aside.
- While cooking, mix the margarine and 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar with a hand mixer (by hand is fine, too). Alternate milk, remaining sugar, and vanilla, beating until smooth. Add more plant-based milk or sugar to get the consistency you prefer.
- Frost the cinnamon rolls.
Notes
- Use a very sharp knife to cut the rolls. If the knife is dull, the cinnamon roll dough will squish down and the filling will likely spill out. A serrated knife can be useful to cut the dough with very little pressure.
- Bake until just golden brown. Over baked crescent rolls can become dry, hard, and crumbly in texture. Begin to check the cinnamon rolls around the 12-minute mark and monitor closely. Once the rolls become lightly golden, pull them from the oven. As they cool they will continue to cook!
- Cut into 9 rolls. The bake time for these cinnamon rolls is based on cutting the crescent rolls dough into 9 rolls. If you choose to cut them into more or less rolls, the bake time will need to be adjusted accordingly.
