Cashew Milk Cinnamon Rolls
Soft yeast dough filled with cinnamon sugar and topped with a thick cashew cream glaze.
By Aunesty Janssen · The Arrogant Hippie Culinary Journal: Cashew Milk Edition
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup Warm Cashew Milk (110°F)
- 2 1/4 tsp Active Dry Yeast
- 1/3 cup Sugar, divided
- 3 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 Egg
- 6 tbsp Butter, softened, divided
- 2 tbsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1/2 cup Thick Cashew Cream (see Dairy Staples chapter)
- 2 tbsp Powdered Sugar
Method
- Combine the warm cashew milk, yeast, and 1 tablespoon of the sugar; let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
- Add the flour, remaining sugar minus what's reserved for filling, salt, egg, and 2 tablespoons softened butter. Knead until smooth, about 8 minutes. Let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Roll the dough into a rectangle, spread with 4 tablespoons softened butter, and sprinkle with the reserved sugar mixed with cinnamon. Roll up tightly and cut into 12 rounds.
- Place in a greased baking dish, cover, and let rise 30 to 45 minutes. Bake at 350°F for 22 to 25 minutes, until golden.
- Whisk the cashew cream and powdered sugar together and drizzle over the warm rolls.
Kitchen note
The cashew cream glaze here sets thicker and richer than a milk-and-powdered-sugar glaze, closer to a cream cheese frosting in texture than a thin drizzle.
