Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 1 packet instant yeast about 2 1/4 teaspoons
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup dairy-free milk
- 0.25 cup dairy-free yogurt acts as egg replacement
- 0.5 cup vegan white chocolate
- 0.5 cup pistachio butter
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.5 cup vegan cream cheese
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons dairy-free milk
Instructions
- Prepare the dough by mixing flour, brown sugar, instant yeast, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Add warmed dairy-free milk and dairy-free yogurt to form a dough.
- Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Cover and let the dough rise in a warm place until it doubles in size.
- Prepare the pistachio cream by melting vegan white chocolate and mixing it with pistachio butter until smooth.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle and spread the pistachio cream evenly across the surface. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Roll the dough starting from the longer side to form a log. Cut into 1 to 1.5-inch pieces and arrange them in a baking dish.
- Cover and let the rolls rise again until puffy. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) during the last few minutes of rising.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Prepare the vegan cream cheese frosting by mixing vegan cream cheese, powdered sugar, and a splash of dairy-free milk. Spread generously over the warm rolls.
