- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1 tablespoon whole psyllium husk (NOT powder)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons almond milk
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup butter, melted and cooled
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons cup full fat coconut milk from a can, divided
For the Filling:
- 4 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
For the glaze:
- 3 tablespoons butter, softened
- 3 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
- Add the flour, sugar, yeast, psyllium husk, and salt to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-low until combined.
- Add in the milk, egg, melted butter, and 1/4 cup coconut milk. Mix until a smooth dough forms.
- Place the dough on a piece of floured parchment paper. Using flour as needed, roll the dough into a 1/4 inch thick rectangle, about 9x12 inches.
- In a small bowl, stir together the sugar and cinnamon. Spread the dough evenly with softened butter and sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Using the edge of the parchment paper closest to you, gently roll the dough into a tight log. Cut into 9 even pieces and place in an 8x8, 9x9, or 9inch round baking dish.
- Cover the rolls with a clean tea towel and set in a warm place to rise for 1 hour. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Drizzle the rolls with the remaining 2 tablespoons coconut milk and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and puffed. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
- While the rolls are cooling, whisk together the glaze ingredients by hand or with an electric mixer until smooth. Pour over the rolls and enjoy!
