Schnucks Plant-Based Cinnamon Rolls
What it is
These are pre-made cinnamon rolls made without any animal products. They typically come in a refrigerated tube or container. Inside, you will find dough that has been swirled with a cinnamon-sugar filling. A separate container of icing is usually included to be drizzled on top after baking. The dough is designed to be easily separated and baked in a standard oven. This option provides a convenient way to enjoy a sweet breakfast or dessert treat.
How people cook with it
These cinnamon rolls are perfect for a quick breakfast or a sweet treat any time of day. They bake up warm and delicious with minimal effort.

To prepare these cinnamon rolls, you will typically need to open the packaging and separate the individual rolls. Arrange them in a baking dish, leaving a little space between them as they will expand while baking. Bake them in a preheated oven according to the package directions until they are golden brown and cooked through. Once they are out of the oven and still warm, you can spread the included icing over the tops. The icing will melt slightly into the warm rolls, creating a delightful glaze.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike traditional cinnamon rolls that often contain dairy and eggs in both the dough and icing, these are formulated without any animal-derived ingredients. This makes them suitable for individuals following a vegan or plant-based diet. The texture and flavor are designed to be very similar to conventional cinnamon rolls.
Who it is for
People seeking a plant-based or vegan alternative for a sweet baked good will enjoy these.
How to keep the rest
Unbaked cinnamon rolls should be kept refrigerated until ready to use. Once baked, any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for a day or two, or refrigerated for longer storage. Reheat gently if desired.
