These vegan cinnamon rolls have the best flavor because of added graham crackers to the dough. You have got to try this! —Melissa Huang

Ingredients
- for the dough:
-
1 cup
lukewarm water
-
1 tablespoon
instant yeast
-
2 1/2 cups
all purpose flour
-
3/4 cup
crushed graham crackers
-
1/4 cup
granulated sugar
-
1/4 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
-
3 tablespoons
neutral oil
- for the filling:
-
3 tablespoons
neutral oil
-
1/4 cup
granulated sugar
-
1/2 tablespoon
ground cinnamon
Directions
-
For the dough: In a large bowl, microwave the water to be about 110-115 degrees F. If you stick your finger in, it should feel just slightly warm.
-
Pour in the yeast and stir until it dissolves. Allow to proof.
-
In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the rest of the ingredients: flour, graham cracker crumbs, sugar, cinnamon, and oil.
-
Once the yeast has become foamy and bubbly, pour into the bowl, use the dough attachment, and mix on medium speed until a tacky but not too sticky dough forms. Add flour and water appropriately.
-
Place dough in a greased bowl and cover with a tamp paper towel or kitchen towel and allow to rise in a warm place. Allow to double in size (takes about 45 minutes to an hour). Meanwhile, prepare the filling.
-
For the filling: Combine the sugar and cinnamon.
-
Roll out the dough into a thin rectangle. Brush evenly with the oil. Then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly.
-
Roll the dough tightly and place the seam side down. Then using floss or a very sharp knife cut into 2 inch sections. Place in a greased pan with a little space in between each. Brush with a little more oil on top. Cover with plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise for another hour.
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until slightly golden brown. Allow to cool slightly and serve immediately. If you want, you can add frosting (but I prefer none).
