Say hello to my Vegan Snickers Cinnamon Rolls!
Fluffy dough, creamy chocolate filling with pieces of peanuts and topped with an easy peanut butter caramel sauce.
Ingredients needed to make these Vegan Snickers Cinnamon Rolls:
- Almond milk, I love unsweetened almond milk and use it in most of my recipes. You can also substitute for any other kind of plant based milk, or regular milk for non vegan.
- Vegan butter, unsalted and in a stick form
- Dry yeast, 2 teaspoon measured. I buy a large package of dry yeast end then store it in an airtight container in the fridge.
- Sugar, normal caster sugar to help the yeast and the dough to rise
- All purpose flour, I always weigh the flour for the best result!
- Salt, a little helps the flavours
- Vanilla paste or vanilla bean powder, I love to use the powder for the flavour but also for those little specks of vanilla bean. You can also substitute for vanilla extract.
Filling:
- Coconut sugar or you can substitute for light brown sugar
- Dark chocolate, use a good quality vegan chocolate or for non vegan a normal dark chocolate
- Vegan butter, or normal butter for non vegan. Use unsalted since the peanuts are salted.
- Cocoa powder, good quality that is unsweetened
- All purpose flour, just one tablespoon to hold the filling together
- Salted roasted peanuts, chopped
Caramel Sauce
- Vegan butter, or normal butter for non vegan. Use unsalted since we are adding salt.
- Maple syrup, the real thing here is important! I have also tested the recipe with honey for a non vegan version and it works well.
- Peanut butter, smooth and all natural
- Pinch of salt
