Ingredients

For the dough

  • 250 mls almond milk unsweetened
  • 60 g vegan margarine
  • 1 x7g sachet fast action dried yeast
  • 450 g plain flour
  • 1.5 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp almond milk to glaze

For the filling

  • 75 g dark chocolate melted
  • 25 g vegan margarine melted
  • 100 g smooth peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp caster sugar
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp ground ginger

For the glaze

  • 60 g icing sugar
  • 1 tbsp almond milk

Instructions

  • Warm the vegan margarine and almond milk until lukewarm. Evenly sprinkle over the yeast and leave to activate for 5 minutes. Next stir in the sugar and salt.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mix the flour and and the yeast liquid mixture. When the mixture becomes too difficult to stir, turn out onto a well floured surface. Gently knead for 30 seconds and form the dough into a ball.
  • Lightly oil a mixing bowl, add the dough and cover with cling film. Leave to rise for 1-1.5hours or until doubled in size.
  • To make the filling, melt the margarine and dark chocolate. Then mix in the peanut butter, caster sugar, cinnamon and ginger.
  • On a well floured work surface, roll the dough out to form a rectangle roughly 1/4 inch thick. Evenly spread over the chocolate mixture ensuring the edges are covered. Then starting from the longer edges, roll the dough into a long sausage shape.
  • Use a serrated knife to cut the dough into 8 segments. Then place in a well buttered baking tin, cover again with cling film and leave to rise for 30 minutes. Pre heat the oven to 200C / 180C fan.
  • Brush the buns with a teaspoon of almond milk and place in the oven for 20 minutes.
  • Prepare the glaze by whisking the icing sugar into the almond milk until smooth and runny.
  • Remove the rolls from the oven when they are golden brown. Immediately pour over the glaze. Leave to cool before serving. Enjoy!
