This was quick and easy to make. We have dairy and soy allergies here, so I used oat milk and it tasted the same as "regular." I think next time I will increase the liquid and/or decrease the sausage; it didn't have the consistency of gravy (not runny enough) and was heavy on the sausage. Maybe I just cooked it too long!

I was so happy to find an egg-free recipe (due to food allergies), & this one worked well. I used sour oat milk (1 1/2 T. vinegar plus enough oat milk to equal 1 1/2 c.; mix & let sit 5 minutes) in place of buttermilk. I ended up using my bread machine. Next time I won't "proof" the yeast beforehand though; I'll just add it dry to the bread machine as the last ingredient, adding the liquids first. Most cinnamon rolls have sugar in the dough, so I added 1/4c. sugar with the rest of the dry ingredients. I also used BREAD FLOUR. The dough turned out nice & soft, not sticky, and was VERY easy to work with (huge rectangle!). For the spread, I substituted white sugar for the brown sugar & added more cinnamon. I rolled the dough, starting at the long end, & used thread to cut the pieces (put thread under the dough log, bring both ends up, crossing each other, & pull out & down); this works much better than a knife, which tends to squash & seal the dough. Next time I will bake them in a 9x13" pan (10x15" is too big). The rolls need to touch each other on the sides so they raise more in the oven. I made a simple glaze of 1 c. powd.sugar & 1 t. vanilla extract mixed with enough "milk" to make it smooth & thin enough to drizzle. These really turned out great!

Very tasty! I roasted the seeds on a foil-lined pan, sprayed with non-stick spray to keep them from sticking. This made for easy clean-up, and also was an easy way to transfer the seeds to the pan. I read some of the reviews, and decided to heat the oil and melt the sugar ahead of time, BEFORE adding the seeds. (I used 1 T. oil, 1 T. margarine, and a drop of water with the 2T. sugar.) I set this aside as I waited for the seeds to finish toasting, which took 35 minutes at 275 degrees. I added the toasted seeds to the melted sugar mixture, and tossed them together over medium heat. Then I added the spice/sugar mixture, removed the pan from the heat, and mixed all until well coated. (I did not feel that there was a need for a separate bowl; I did all the mixing in one pan.) I added a bit more cinnamon and used only 4T. sugar overall, instead of the 6T. it calls for. This is definitely better than the traditional salt-only roasted seeds!
