Cinnamon Cranberry Ring
This starts as with a simple biscuit recipe but, with a few additions, the result is so delicious! It can be made a day ahead and it even freezes well!
Prepare a pan with parchment paper. Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and 1 Tablespoon sugar.
Cut in the vegan butter until you have an even distribution.
Mix together your milk, flax egg, and vanilla. Add wet to dry and stir just until mixture comes together.
Roll out onto parchment paper until it's about 10 inches by 12 inches.
Brush gently with melted butter. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon mixed together. Sprinkle with cranberries. Roll up so that you have a 12 inch long roll. Press and seal the two ends of the roll and the long dough edges so that the filling won't leak out!
Curl the roll slightly into a crescent. Make shallow slices every few inches along top to help maintain shape.
Put in hot oven for 20 - 30 minutes or until roll is a deep golden brown.
While still warm, glaze with an almond flavoured drizzle. Sprinkle with toasted almonds and then add more drizzle! You can use a few maraschino cherries to fancy this up!
This is wonderful served warm but is great cold as well! Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
This actually stays fresh for a few days, even though it's a simple biscuit dough! Try adding different fruit in the roll. I'm going to try tart cherries chopped up... for my dad!
