Healthy vegan chickpea cinnamon rolls, easy to prepare and so satisfying!!

1 cup chickpeas (can – drained, but use about 3 teaspoons of the liquid to help blend)
2 tablespoons soya milk
1/2 cup sweetener
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup plain flour
1 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast

Blend the chickpeas (and liquid) with soya milk until a paste forms
Then transfer to a mixing bowl and add the rest of the roll ingredients and mix
Kneed the dough with you hands for 5 minutes until all the mixture is combined and the outside of the bowl is clean (if you need a little more moisture just add a drop of warm water – but don’t add too much!!)
Pop the dough in a warm place with a damp tea towel over the top for ~ an hour or until the dough has doubled in size
Then, roll the dough out flat onto a floured surface using a rolling pin
Melt the ‘spread’ ingredients in a pan and mix to combine
Meanwhile, pre-heat the oven to 320°F
When the spread mixture has melted and been mixed, pour 3/4 of the mixture on top of the dough and use a spoon to spread it out evenly
Use a knife to cut the dough into 12 long strips, then roll each one up to form the cinnamon rolls one by one
When rolled, place them all in a greased oven-proof dish
With a spoon, pour the rest of the ‘spread’ mixture evenly on top of the rolls
Then put the rolls in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown
Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes, then enjoy!
