Best eggless cinnamon roll recipe ā¤ļø
I get so many questions about this recipe so I wanted to share a bit of the why behind the workings of it.
I actually prefer a recipe without eggs as I feel it makes them tougher and dry out faster. Just my preference! So I love this eggless version as it stays super soft!
The main reason why is the sponge. This happens when we add the yeast, warm liquid, and some but not all of the flour.
It not only helps to retain the moisture in this recipe and keep it pillowy soft longer but also gives the enzymes time to break down the starches into sugar and soften the gluten. This leads to a better rise and higher gas retention in the dough for a softer, more open crumb!
Lots of science but it works! These rolls are pillowy soft and absolute perfection!
The free recipe is in my bio on my website! I also have a full course in my bio for those who would love a little more guidance in this process!
