  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make dairy-free cinnamon rolls? Prepare your food. Sift the flour first; this will not only remove any possible debris, but also saturate the flour with oxygen, which will make the baked goods more airy and soft. Choose refined, odorless oil. I use fast acting yeast. If you take others, follow the instructions on the package.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    I baked half the batch. Take a large bowl for the dough. Sift flour into it. It may take you more or less flour than it did for me. Focus on the consistency of the dough.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Add sugar and salt.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Add yeast. Mix the dry ingredients well so that the yeast is evenly distributed throughout the flour.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Heat the water to a temperature of 38-40 degrees. It should be pleasantly warm, never hot. Hot water will destroy living organisms - yeast, but in warm water they will wake up and begin to work. While stirring constantly, pour water into the flour.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    Next, pour in the vegetable oil. There will already be enough liquid to start kneading the dough. First stir with a fork, then with your hands.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    The dough will come together quite quickly into a ball due to the fact that it contains a lot of oil. It will practically not stick to your hands and is very easy to work with.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    However, it is better to knead the dough longer so that it becomes completely homogeneous and smooth.

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 9

    Place the finished dough in a bowl, cover it with a towel or cling film and put it in a warm place to rise for 1 hour. I always put a bowl of dough in a non-working oven. It is still warmer and there are no drafts, the dough fits perfectly.

  10. STEP 10

    STEP 10

    After an hour, the dough will double in volume.

  11. STEP 11

    STEP 11

    Divide it into several parts to make it easier to work with. Since I have half a portion, I divided it in half. It is recommended to divide the full portion into 4 parts.

  12. STEP 12

    STEP 12

    Roll out part of the dough into a thin layer about 5 mm thick. Make the shape rectangular to make it easier to form the roll.

  13. STEP 13

    STEP 13

    I greased the layer with a thin layer of vegetable oil. But this is not necessary; the author of the recipe prepared without it. Mix cinnamon and sugar.

  14. STEP 14

    STEP 14

    Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the dough sheet.

  15. STEP 15

    STEP 15

    Roll it up along the long side. Pinch the edge.

  16. STEP 16

    STEP 16

    Cut the roll into equal pieces. I first cut it in half, then each part in half again, and so on. One roll yielded 8 pieces. You can make larger pieces to make the buns bigger. But for this it is better that the roll itself is thicker. In this case, do not initially divide the dough into parts, but roll it out in a large piece.

  17. STEP 17

    STEP 17

    Take a piece of roll and pinch it on one side. This will be the base of the bun. This molding will make them very unusual in shape - in the form of roses. Do the same with all the pieces. Make buns using the remaining pieces of dough in the same way. You don’t have to pinch the edges of the pieces, then you will get buns that look like cinnabons.

  18. STEP 18

    STEP 18

    Take a baking sheet and line it with baking parchment. Place the buns on it, seam side down. Be sure to leave some space between them; the buns will rise during baking. Cover the baking sheet with a towel and leave for 30 minutes. Next, you can grease them before baking - with an egg, if this is not a fundamentally lean recipe or not, with sweet tea or water. I didn't lubricate it with anything at all.

  19. STEP 19

    STEP 19

    Preheat the oven to 180°C, I use electric, top-bottom mode. Bake the buns for about 25-30 minutes, depending on their size, quantity and the features of your oven. They should turn golden. Remove the finished buns from the oven and leave to cool slightly. From half the portion I got 16 small buns.

  20. STEP 20

    STEP 20

    Serve them warm, they are very good piping hot. I even warmed the cooled buns slightly in the microwave. Despite the lack of baking in the dough, the buns turned out incredibly fluffy! They are especially tasty with milk. If you are a vegan or fasting, then with a vegetable one) Bon appetit!

I was looking on the Internet for a recipe for “from nothing” buns when there was no milk or butter at home, and I settled on this one, because... I got a lot of likes and didn’t regret it. Now I bake this recipe all the time. I knead the dough in the bread maker, everything turns out perfect. I grease the dough with margarine and sprinkle it with a mixture of cinnamon and sugar. No hassles, cheap and very tasty! Thanks for the super recipe!
