10 servings
For the dough
- ¾ cup plant-based milk, warmed to 110°f (43°c)
- 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (1 standard packet)
- 3 tbsp organic cane sugar, divided
- 3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 tbsp vegan butter, melted and cooled slightly

For the cinnamon swirl
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp vegan butter, softened
For finishing

- 1 tbsp organic cane sugar, for sprinkling (optional)
Instructions
- 1
In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the warmed plant-based milk, yeast, and 1 tbsp of the organic cane sugar. Stir briefly and let stand for 5–8 minutes, until the surface is foamy and the mixture smells yeasty.

Add the melted vegan butter, vanilla extract, and remaining 2 tbsp organic cane sugar to the yeast mixture and stir to combine. Add the flour and salt, then mix with a dough hook on medium speed (or stir with a wooden spoon and knead by hand) for 6–8 minutes, until the dough is smooth, slightly tacky, and pulls away cleanly from the sides of the bowl.
