- 1/2 cup Coconut Sugar
- 1 cup Plant-Based Milk (almond or oat milk recommended)
- 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar

- 1/2 cup Chopped Nuts (optional)
- For the Icing:
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar (ensure it’s gluten-free)
- 2 tbsp Plant-Based Milk

Instructions
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, baking powder, coconut sugar, and a pinch of salt.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the plant-based milk, apple cider vinegar, and melted coconut oil.
- Form the Dough: Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Let it Rise: Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let the dough rest for 10-15 minutes.
- Roll Out the Dough: On a floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick.
- Spread the Filling: Evenly sprinkle your brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and optional chopped nuts over the rolled-out dough.
- Shape the Rolls: Starting from one edge, carefully roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into 1-inch pieces.
- Bake: Arrange the slices in a greased baking dish and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes.
- Prepare the Icing: While the rolls bake, whisk together powdered sugar, plant-based milk, and vanilla extract.
- Glaze the Rolls: Once baked, allow the rolls to cool slightly before drizzling the icing over the top.
Notes
- Room temperature ingredients yield the best results.
- Avoid over-kneading to maintain softness.
- Let rolls cool slightly before icing.
