today we are out of yeast and we are not letting that stop us we're still gonna
be chuffing up some damn good no yeast cinnamon rolls let's go
(soft jazz music playing)
Yeahhhhhhh. welcome and welcome back my name is Andrew just one of the haves hailing from make it
dairy free dot com and your boy is uh is out of yeast (deep sigh) again but I am in the mood
for some cinnamon rolls the thought here is what is it that yeast does to dough
that we want to replicate yeast basically makes dough more Airy and
expands it. yielding in a more fluffy more soft and bigger cinnamon roll. yeast
makes dough like memory foam where you can squeeze it down and it will inflate
back to it's an original shape well we won't be able to get these exact
descriptors to fit our rolls we will have soft and fluffy rolls but more
similar to a biscuit soft than a bread soft an additional upside to not using
yeast is there's no waiting hours for a rise to happen now imagine the best
biscuit you ever had combined with the best cinnamon roll we ever had with a
tutorial by the best friend you ever had aw shucks let's hop into the video
(smooth jazz playing, then fades to the background)
after you pre-heat your oven and grease your baking dish
let's get these dry ingredients together this recipe is super easy just add your
flour sugar baking powder and salt in a bowl and give it a whisk now it will be
a real sad day if your baking powder already said uncle so to test that it
is still kicking you want to add some of it to a small bowl with some boiling
water on top it should look like a bubble party immediately if not toss it
and don't try using baking soda it's not the same thing next get all your wet
stuff into the bowl to make things easier if your butter is melted but not warm or
hot just add it into the milk then add the vinegar and pour everything together
at once if not you could just add your milk and your vinegar in to the same
exact cup pour that into the bowl first and mix your batter your dough will
start to come together but it will be slightly dry here's where you will add
in your butter and you could either mix it in and or knead it into the dough get
the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it for about a minute use flour to
help the dough not be overly sticky roll the dough out into your best possible
rectangle I say that because even mine isn't that perfect but I don't care
still tastes good it's all that matters to me once you have it about 10 by 14
inches start making the filling once again dry stuff in the bowl give it a
stir and then wet stuff after I add the butter into the bowl first and
incorporate that and then add the vanilla last get this spreaded out
evenly on your dough leaving roughly about a smidgen of a space along the
borders right before rolling the dough together I put a little bit of water at
the edge while I'm rolling towards this way once you get the dough rolled up it
will be sealed at the end by that water you are cutting this log into nine
pieces I like to start by splitting the dough into thirds
then cutting each third twice we'll give you three pieces out of each
third resulting in a total of nine that might sound a little confusing but once
you do it you'll get it organize these into the pan was the little space and
escort them into the oven we are going to make a cashew cream cheese frosting
for these rolls we have plenty of frosting options at the website make it
dairy free dot com these options cater to all types of allergy friendly needs
cream cheese frosting used to be one of my favs prior to my current vegan
lifestyle this vegan version that we are making is definitely fitting the craving
as you can see nothing fancy here just dumping all the ingredients into the
blender and giving it a go when you finish up it should come out to be this
thick beautiful rich and flavorful goodness from here y'all you know what
to do I just turned a whole blender over on top of these bad boys and it's act
like it was an accident just literally drenched these rolls in the frosting and
enjoy guys thanks again for tuning in your support has been insane love and
the vibe from y'all have been incredible we have some good stuff in store for you
on the horizon until next week remember to believe in good peace
