2 pinches fine sea salt ot Himalain pink salt

1 tsp lemon or orange zest or more to taste

Directions

Dough: Add warmed milk to yeast in a large bowl and let it dissolve and bubble for a few minutes. Add coconut oil, coconut brown sugar, almond oil, egg substitute, and vanilla to yeast mixture. Stir until mixed. Slowly add flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet mixture. Stir until well combined. Shape dough into a ball, place in a greased container, cover with a towel, and let it rest for about an hour. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Filling: While dough is resting, combine all filling ingredients in a bowl. If you prefer something sweeter, substitute the goji berries with your preferred dried fruit.

Creating rolls: Lay out wax or parchment paper, lightly flour, and roll dough until it's a quarter inch thick. If the dough is a bit dry, rub with a tiny bit of coconut oil. It is best to roll out the dough in a long oval shape (portrait view) rather than a circle in order to roll it into a log later. Cover rolled-out dough with filling evenly, leaving a half inch space around the edges. Rather than spreading the filling with a spatula, try spooning and leaving the mixture a bit loose when covering dough. Starting from the bottom of dough, start to tightly roll the dough into a log shape. Roll and then use parchment paper to help tighten and smooth each time you roll. If the dough breaks, smooth over with hands. Cut with a sharp knife into rolls about two inches wide. Place them in a greased dish with some space for expanding. Bake for 18-22 minutes.

Glaze: Put coconut brown sugar and orange juice into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat, and let simmer for five minutes. Add all other ingredients and mix. The longer you simmer, the thicker the glaze will be. Drizzle over rolls after they are done baking and enjoy. Chat Conversation End
