Turn the stand mixer to low and add in the non-dairy milk, vanilla, and food coloring. 3. Add in the vegan butter and let go for 5-7 minutes, adding in the remaining flour if needed to not be sticky and form a ball. Mix by hand if you don’t have a stand mixer. 4. Once ball is formed, grease the same bowl mixed in and place the dough ball back into the bowl. 5. Cover with a towel or plastic wrap and place in a warm place until double in size. 6. Once dough is doubled in size, pull out the dough and lay it out on a lightly floured surface. 7. Using a rolling pin, roll dough into an approximately 30x 15 cm rectangle that is 1 cm thick. 8. For the filling – smear a generous layer on to the cinnamon roll, sprinkle over the sugar, raspberries slightly smashed. 9. Carefully roll cinnamon rolls into log from the longest side up.

Preheat to 180 degrees Celsius. 12. Once heated, place dish inside and bake in oven for 30-35 minutes. 13.
