Yeast Free Cinnamon Rolls 5 Ingredients Egg Free

I love cinnamon rolls and I’m not alone. When I make any of my cinnamon roll recipes (like my Banana Bread Cinnamon Rolls or Vegan Cinnamon Rolls), they’re generally gone in less than 24 hours. Here’s my issue with that: these recipes take up to two hours to whip up. Sometimes, I have time to make a 2-hour recipe, sometimes the kids’ pressure is just to great (you know what I’m talking about, right?). For the last little while, I’ve been trying to develop a recipe that tastes like cinnamon rolls, and has the same texture as traditional cinnamon rolls, but take a lot less time.

Why You’ll LOVE These Yeast-Free Cinnamon Rolls

Only 5 ingredients Ready in about 30 minutes Perfect, soft, light, fluffy texture Super easy icing Classic cinnamon roll taste

If I had to give a con to all these pros, it’s that they are gone too fast. Nine of them with a family of four are gone in less than a day.

Ingredients and Substitutions

A simple recipe for me is one that is quicker to make than the classic (check, it takes only 30 minutes), and also that is made with fewer and easier-to-find ingredients. This recipe only takes 5 basic ingredients!

Self-Rising Flour – Self-rising flour is essentially a combination of all-purpose flour and baking powder. If you can’t find any or don’t want to go to the shop for that, you can make your own. All you have to do is combine two teaspoons of baking powder for every cup of flour. I haven’t tried this recipe with gluten-free flour. In my experience, using GF flour in such baking recipe makes the dough too dense and gummy. But if you’ve tried it successfully, leave a comment below!! Vanilla Yogurt – I’ve made this recipe with coconut yogurt and cashew yogurt. It really works with any kind of yogurt. The reason I use vanilla yogurt instead of a plain version is to give the dough a slight flavor without having to add vanilla extract. Vegan Butter – Any vegan butter alternative works. Measure it melted to be accurate but make sure it’s not too hot. Cinnamon – There’s no cinnamon roll without cinnamon, right? Coconut Sugar – Any unrefined sugar works, but coconut sugar is my absolute favorite because it tastes better.
