When ready to bake in the morning, take the pan out of the refrigerator while heating the oven to 350° F.
After the oven has reached temperature, bake the cinnamon rolls for 25-30 minutes, until slightly golden. To Bake Immediately, heat the oven to 350° F while the rolls rise.Cover the cinnamon rolls with two clean kitchen towels or plastic wrap.Īt this point, you have three options – bake immediately, proof overnight in the refrigerator, or freeze for later enjoyment. Transfer each cinnamon roll to a greased casserole dish, spacing them about 1 inch apart to allow expansion. By sliding the floss underneath the roll, then bringing both ends tougher and pulling tightly, it creates perfect slices without smooshing them at all. Instead of using a knife, I like using a long piece of dental floss. Though I do have a little tip I’d like to share with you. At this point you can slice the roll in ten to twelve segments using a serrated knife, depending on how thick you want your cinnamon rolls. Then roll it out in a large rectangle, spread the applesauce-cinnamon-sugar blend evenly over the dough and roll it up. Once the dough is well combined, cover the bowl with a couple of dense towels or plastic wrap and allow to rise in an undisturbed place until the dough doubles in size, one to one and a half hours. That’s the opposite of what we want with these cinnamon rolls. When you add too much flour, the dough gets tough and dry. Try really hard not to add more flour you truly need. You can certainly knead by hand, it’s just that my wrists appreciate this thoughtful gesture quite a bit. I prefer kneading the cinnamon roll dough in a stand mixer on the lowest speed until it leaves the side of the bowl. This increases the nutritional profile of these cinnamon rolls while maintaining the soft texture and mild flavor that cinnamon rolls typically contain. I enjoy using white whole wheat flour along with all-purpose flour. I also recommend using a 50-50 flour blend. Your cinnamon rolls will be more classic and delicious, but still a bit healthier than many traditional recipes out there.īut I don’t stop with substituting the butter.

If you aren’t trying to avoid oil, feel free to substitute vegan butter for the applesauce. And it may not be as buttery as a cinnabon, but there’s still enough ooey-gooey goodness that these cinnamon rolls are quite satisfying. And in fact, I replace it twice – once in the dough and once in the cinnamon filling. I still recommend using an unsweetened plain plant milk for the liquid though I do completely replace the traditional vegan butter with apple sauce. And if you’re trying to do the same, this recipe is for you!! So, yeah, it’s for me trying to be healthier and take care of my body. In fact, this recipe is for all of those who are trying to avoid sugar, as well as those trying to eat a more whole food plant-based no oil diet, but still want to enjoy delicious favorite foods ad classic favorites.
