The How to Bit 

 1 Prepare the Dough:

• - In a small saucepan, heat the oat milk and vegan butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm but not hot (about 110°F).

• - In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 1/2 cups of the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.

• - Pour the warm milk and butter mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.

• - Gradually add the remaining flour, 1/4 cup at a time, until the dough pulls away from the sides

• of the bowl. The dough should be soft but not sticky.

• - Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic.

• - Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

2. Prepare the Filling:

• - In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together.

• - Punch down the risen dough and roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a 15x9 inch rectangle.

• - Spread the softened vegan butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.

3. Roll and Cut the Dough:

• - Starting from the long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log.

• - Cut the log into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.

4. Second Rise:

•  Cover the rolls with a towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes.

5. Bake:

• - Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

• - Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.

6. Prepare the Glaze:

• - In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, non-dairy milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
