Эти Шоколадные булочки с корицей are the best Christmas breakfast to share with family. They are soft, big, fluffy, and require only one 20-minute rise. Plus you can make the dough overnight for a quick Christmas breakfast. Compared to classic cinnamon rolls, they are filled with cocoa powder and chocolate chips that melt in and create a lovely chocolate cinnamon bun.

I love making cinnamon rolls, their soft dough, the rolling, even the cutting is cool and interesting. While I’ve made many versions, like my Полезные булочки с корицей, Бездрожжевые булочки с корицей или Банановый хлеб, булочки с корицей, I’ve never made a very chocolatey version.

I decided to go for double chocolate: cocoa powder in the filling, boosted with chocolate chips inside and on the rolls. These cinnamon rolls are both simple to make and so delicious you won’t have to look at my storage tips!

This recipe takes a few ingredients, but all of them are fairly standard and you probably already have them in your kitchen.

Мука общего назначения – Flour makes the structure of the dough, resulting in soft and fluffy rolls. You can also use white spelt flour or white whole wheat flour. For a gluten-free version, use my руководство по переходу на безглютеновую диету.
Миндальное молоко – Almond milk activates the yeast and binds the dough. You can use any dairy-free milk, like soy milk, oat milk, or cashew milk.
Активные сухие дрожжи – Yeast leavens the dough, creating airy and soft rolls. It might work with Instant yeast but you’d have to reduce the quantity slightly and skip the proofing, but I haven’t tried this.
Выпечка порошок – Baking powder speeds up the rising process, making the rolls fluffier in a shorter time.
Масло без молочных продуктов – This adds moisture and a rich buttery flavor. You can also use margarine or coconut oil. If you eat dairy, it should work fine with butter.
Сахар – Sugar feeds the yeast and sweetens the dough. You can also use coconut sugar, brown sugar, or unrefined cane sugar.
Коричневый сахар – Brown sugar is used to sweeten the filling and it caramelizes slightly when baked. You can also use coconut sugar or maple sugar.
Не сладкий какао порошок – Cocoa powder brings the chocolate flavor to the filling. Carob powder might work fine as well.
Соевые свечи Корица – Cinnamon adds the classic Christmas flavors you expect from a cinnamon roll and boosts the chocolate flavor.
Мини-шоколадные чипсы – Chocolate chips make the filling more gooey with melty chocolate pockets. You can also use finely chopped dark chocolate or vegan chocolate chunks.
Сахарная пудра – I use powdered sugar for the glaze. You can also use coconut powdered sugar or sugar-free alternatives.
Растительный йогурт – I use yogurt for the glaze. You can use any type of plant-based yogurt like coconut yogurt, almond yogurt, or cashew yogurt.

Советы Карин по выпечке

I have a few more tips for you to make the best cinnamon rolls.

Температура имеет значение – Ensure the almond milk is lukewarm (around 98°F/37°C) to activate the yeast without killing it. Use a kitchen thermometer for accuracy.
Не переусердствуйте с тестом – Knead just enough to form a smooth ball; over-kneading can make the rolls dense.
Flour Your Tools – Lightly flour the rolling pin and work surface to prevent the dough from sticking.
Ensure Even Butter Distribution – Soften the butter thoroughly before spreading it to avoid tearing the dough.
Mind the Filling Placement – Leave a small margin around the edges of the dough when applying the filling (like on a pizza) to prevent it from spilling during rolling.
Use Dental Floss to Cut – Unflavored dental floss slices through the dough cleanly without squishing the rolls.
Monitor Rising Time in Cooler Kitchens – If your kitchen is cool, place the dough near a warm appliance (like a preheating oven) to ensure proper rising. You can also leave it in an oven at about (around 98°F/37°C).
Adjust Bake Time for Oven Variations – Check for golden tops around the 25-minute mark to avoid overbaking.
Подготовка вперед – For Christmas morning convenience, make the dough and filling the night before and refrigerate.
Customize the Glaze – Add a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of espresso powder to the glaze for added flavors.
порция: These rolls are best served slightly warm to enjoy the melty chocolate. Reheat leftovers briefly in a microwave or oven.
Память: Store in an airtight container in the fridge на срок до 4 дней. To freeze, wrap each roll individually and store in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat before serving.
