Every morning is Sunday morning when these vegan gluten free cinnamon rolls are warm and ready to eat!

Today, I want to talk about one of my all-time favorite treats that always makes my taste buds dance with joy: Vegan Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls! These delightful swirls of dough are allergy friendly, generously filled with sweet cinnamon goodness and topped with a luscious glaze, are truly a comfort food that brings warmth and happiness to any occasion.

A Christmas Wish

We crafted this allergy-friendly recipe (which also happens to be vegan) on Christmas Eve when my daughter eagerly asked to make cinnamon rolls with myself and my mom (her grandma). I sort of groaned at the idea at first not wanting to make something requiring dough to be rolled out and flour all over the counter when we were already clearing away wrapping paper and opened gifts before more company arrived and Christmas dinner cooking commenced!

But, trying to stay in the Christmas spirit of creating family memories and traditions together, I smiled and said ‘yes’! The whole process turned out to be much easier than I thought and the pay off of these safe AND yummy cinnamon rolls was so worth it!

Whether you enjoy them for breakfast, brunch, or even as a late-night snack, cinnamon rolls are the epitome of deliciousness and nostalgia. And this is coming from a die-hard chocolate fan who takes no shame in turning her nose up at sweets that dare not contain chocolate, lol! So, let’s dig in and explore why cinnamon rolls are simply the best!

Yes, Vegan AND Gluten Free!

One of the best things about vegan gluten free cinnamon rolls is that they are inclusive and cater to various dietary needs, including many food allergies. They are made with wholesome, plant-based ingredients and gluten free flours, making them suitable for those who are on a vegan or gluten free diet, or have food sensitivities or allergies. But don’t worry, the flavor and texture are still on point!

The aroma of cinnamon is like a cozy hug for your senses. As soon as you start baking cinnamon rolls, your kitchen fills with the most heavenly scent that wafts through the air, teasing your nose and making your mouth water in anticipation. The warm, spicy notes of cinnamon blend perfectly with the sweetness of the dough and create a symphony of flavors that is simply irresistible. I love watching the cinnamon swirls come to life as I roll out the dough, generously sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar filling, and then tightly roll it up into a log. The excitement builds as I slice the log into thick rounds and place them in a baking pan, ready to be transformed into golden, gooey goodness in the oven.

The joy of biting into a fresh, warm cinnamon roll is unparalleled. The soft, pillowy dough, with its layers of cinnamon-sugar filling, oozes with sweetness and warmth. The caramelization of the cinnamon-sugar creates a gooey, luscious center that is pure bliss with every bite. And let’s not forget about the glaze! Whether it’s a classic vanilla glaze, or a creative twist like maple or coffee-flavored, the icing on top adds that extra touch of indulgence that takes cinnamon rolls to a whole new level of yumminess. I love how the glaze melts into the crevices of the rolls, adding a burst of flavor and a touch of elegance to the humble cinnamon roll.

My Soul Might be Made of Cinnamon 🙂
