- In a large mixing bowl add the all-purpose flour, baking powder, yogurt, melted butter, coconut sugar, and the activated yeast prepared before.
- Stir with a rubber spatula and, when it starts to look crumbly, lightly oil your hands and knead the dough to form a ball. If it is too wet, add a bit more flour. If it's too dry, add more yogurt. You can also prepare this cinnamon roll dough in a stand mixer using the dough hook attachment. Work at speed 3-4 until a dough ball forms.

Nota
Pemakanan
Why These Cinnamon Rolls Are Healthier
- Lower in Fat – Traditional recipes rely heavily on butter and eggs. This version uses high-protein dairy-free yogurt to reduce fat content while maintaining richness. It also makes the recipe vegan-friendly!
- Tanpa Gula Ditapis – Sweetened with gula kelapa or sugar-free options like erythritol, these rolls are kinder on blood sugar levels.
- Dikemas dengan Protein – Each roll contains Gram 5 protein, with potential to increase by substituting the filling butter with powdered peanut butter.
- Cepat dan Mudah – Gabungan daripada active dry yeast and baking powder reduces the rising time to just 30 minutes.
- Kemanisan yang boleh disesuaikan – You can make sugar-free icing and sugar-free filling for a low-calorie treat.
Bahan dan Pengganti
Eight ingredients is all you need to make these rolls!

- Tepung serbaguna – Flour is the main ingredient for the rolls. It can be swapped with white spelt flour or whole wheat flour for a nuttier taste, but avoid almond or oat flour as they don’t provide the right texture. For a gluten-free version, use my panduan penukaran bebas gluten.
- Yogurt Berasaskan Tumbuhan – This adds moisture, binds the dough, and increases protein. Use almond, oat, or soy yogurt as alternatives.
- Susu badam – Almond milk provides the liquid needed to form the dough. Any plant-based milk like soy or oat milk works just as well.
- Yis Kering Aktif – It helps the rolls rise and gives them a soft, fluffy texture. Combined with baking powder for a quicker rise.
- Mentega Bebas Tenusu – Butter is used both in the dough and to make the filling. It Can be replaced with light olive oil or applesauce for an oil-free option.
- Serbuk penaik – Baking powder works alongside yeast to reduce the rise time and ensure the rolls are still fluffy.
- Gula Kelapa – Coconut sugar sweetens the dough naturally and adds a mild caramel flavor. It can be replaced with sugar-free brown erythritol for a calorie-free option.
- Kayu manis – It adds the classic warm, spiced flavor to the filling. Essential for the signature cinnamon roll taste. You can’t really replace it with anything else (they wouldn’t be called cinnamon rolls if it was the case).
- Gula aising – This is used for the glaze. You can swap it with powdered erythritol or powdered allulose for a sugar-free version.
- Cip Coklat Gelap – You can add chocolate chips as an addition for extra sweetness in the filling or topping.
How to Make Healthy Cinnamon Rolls
These rolls are ever so slightly easier to make than the traditional recipe because the rising time is faster. Here are key steps in pictures.

Activate the yeast with warm (but not hot) water.

Combine the dough ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer.

Cinnamon roll dough combined into a sticky ball and let it rest for 10 minutes to rise.

Flatten the dough with a rolling pin until you have a large rectangle.

Spread your softened dairy-free butter on top of the dough.

Combine the cinnamon with coconut sugar and spread the mixture on the dough.

Roll the dough into a large cylinder, starting from the long side.

Use some unflavored dental floss or a very sharp knife to cut the dough into 9 rolls.

Place the rolls in a baking pan and bake them for 5-30 minutes at 350 °F (180 °C).

Let the rolls cool down completely before drizzling the icing on the top.
Petua Membakar Carine
While the recipe should be all you need, here are a few more tips to make the most perfect rolls.
- Warm the Milk Properly – Make sure the almond milk is lukewarm (around 98 °F/37 °C). Too hot can kill the yeast, and too cold won’t activate it.
- Don’t Skip Activating the Yeast – Letting the yeast sit with sugar and warm milk ensures it’s active and bubbly, which leads to fluffier rolls.
- Control Dough Stickiness – The dough should be slightly sticky but workable. Adjust with small amounts of flour or yogurt as needed. Avoid over-flouring, which can make the rolls dense.
- Roll Dough Evenly – Aim for a consistent thickness when rolling out the dough to ensure even baking. Use a ruler for accuracy if needed.
- Use Dental Floss for Cutting – For clean cuts that maintain the swirl, use unflavored dental floss instead of a knife to slice the rolls.
- Cool Before Icing – Let the rolls cool completely before applying the glaze to avoid it melting off.
- Tambah Penggalak Protein – Replace the butter in the filling with powdered peanut butter for extra protein without adding fat.
- Experiment with Fillings – Add raisins, chopped nuts, or even a layer of thinly sliced apples for variety in the filling.
- Prevent Drying Out – Cover the rolls with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel during the short rise to retain moisture.
- Buat Lebih Awal – Prepare the rolls the night before, store them in the fridge, and bake fresh in the morning for a quick breakfast treat.
Cadangan Melayan
To make a complete breakfast or dessert spread, pair these cinnamon rolls with:
- Vegan Vanilla Latte - Saya vanilla latte is a creamy, dairy-free coffee drink that complements the cinnamon and sweetness of the rolls.
- Homemade Chia Seed Jam - Saya jem bayi is perfect served as a side or drizzle over the rolls for a fruity twist.
- Coklat Panas Protein - Saya Coklat Panas Protein is warm and cozy. This protein-rich drink enhances the cinnamon flavor while providing a chocolatey contrast.
- Yogurt Protein – I love serving my Yogurt Protein Coklat for a refreshing, protein-rich pairing.
- Dairy-Free Pumpkin Spice Smoothie - Saya Smoothie Pai Labu is a seasonal drink with warm spices that complements the rolls’ flavors perfectly.

If you love cinnamon rolls as much as I do, you need to try these:






Step 2 says to put the milk, sugar, and yeast in a bowl to activate. Then, step 3 says to mix the dough ingredients and lists the sugar again, but I don’t see anywhere how it says to split the amount? Is it supposed to be in both steps? I only see in the dough portion of the ingredients one entry for sugar and it just says 1/4 cup coconut sugar. The note 5 simply tells me I can substitute other kinds of brown sugar. Help!
Sorry about this typo, the sugar is going in step 3. I corrected the instructions.
hello
I know you mentioned that you can’t use almond or oat flour but what about coconut flour
Coconut flour is even worst as it contains 4 times more fibers than regular flour, you will end up with a crumbly batter that never firm up. Coconut flour requires eggs (I don’t bake with eggs) and a combination of other flours most of the time almond, tapioca starch etc.
Perfect taste and quite easy to make for cinnamon rolls!
Thank you, great recipe!!!
Nevermind that these are healthier than normal rolls, they’re just the best I’ve ever had!! My kids also loved them
