Easy Vegan Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake
Although worth the time, cinnamon rolls can be a very time-consuming task! This vegan cinnamon roll coffee cake is every bit as good but without having to spend all morning baking! It takes about 10 – 15 minutes to assemble and 20-25 minutes to bake!
I just whipped some up for Easter morning… although I did have to taste it, but only to make sure it was good! ;) and oh was it ever!
Ingredients:
1/4 cup unsweetend applesauce
1 replaced egg w/ Ener-g Egg or your favorite egg replacer
1/2 cup non-dairy milk (I use rice milk)
1-1/2 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 recipe streusel topping (below)
1 recipe Glaze (below)
Directions:
Using a hand mixer on medium speed, combine applesauce, vegan egg, and non-dairy milk.
Whisk together dry ingredients then add to milk mixture and mix gently until well combined.
Spray 9x9x2 inch pain with non-stick spray and pour mixture into it.
Sprinkle with streusel topping making sure to cover all areas. With a spoon (or your finger!) gently poke some of the topping down a little into the flour mixture. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before drizzling glaze over the top.
Streusel Topping:
Mix together 2 Tbsp melted vegan butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 2 Tbsp flour, 2 tsp ground cinnamon, until well combined. The mixture will be crumbly.
Glaze:
Combine 1-1/2 cups powdered sugar, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and 3 Tbsp rice milk. Whisk until smooth.
I just made this for a non-vegan brunch and it was loved by all! Thank you!
Great Tara, I’m glad to hear everyone loved it! It’s one of my favorites, especially because it’s so easy to make! This is actually a recipe I have been making for years, even before I became vegan, it converted over really well!
Feel free to ask if you’re looking for anything special! I have tons of recipes but only post some of the easier ones with fewer ingredients… when I have time… when I think about it! :)
