Egg Free, Dairy Free, Nut Free Crock Pot Simple Cinnamon Rolls

I had a can of biscuits in the fridge that was about to expire so I came up with a super simple way of making cinnamon rolls in the crock pot. They are light and fluffy with the bottom coated with caramelized sugar. They are very good and make the house smell wonderful.

Crock Pot Simple Cinnamon Rolls

1 can safe refrigerated pop biscuits
1/2 cup dairy free margarine
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract

Melt the margarine then stir in the vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon. Roll a biscuit in the margarine to coat completely. Roll to evenly coat in the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture. Place in the sprayed crock pot. Cover with a paper towel then place on the lid. Cover then cook on low for 2-3 hours.

Egg Free, Dairy Free Simple Apple Dumplings

I saw apple dumplings at the grocery store the other day and have been craving them since. This is a simple but yummy version. When I made them I placed the orange juice and margarine on the bottom then the apple dumplings on top. The next time I'm going to pour them over top of the dumplings. Feel free to make them either way.

Simple Apple Dumplings

3 apples, peeled, cored and diced
2 tubes safe refrigerated biscuits
3/4 cup orange juice
3 tbsp dairy free margarine, melted
Cinnamon sugar as desired

Flatten out a biscuit then seal some of the diced apples inside. Place the dumpling, seam side down, in a sprayed 11x15 baking dish. Repeat with the remaining biscuits. Pour the orange juice over the dumplings then drizzle with the melted margarine. Sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar. Bake at 375 for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
* Great served warm topped with soy milk.

Egg Free, Dairy Free, Nut Free Jazzy’s Simple and Delicious Doughnuts

The Boy Scouts were making these doughnuts at a Spring festival. I finally found a safe refrigerated biscuit so that I could make some at home for Jazlyn. She absolutely loved them and couldn't get enough. I can't believe how perfect these doughnuts are, crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. They are best eaten right away. If you store some for later, they loose their crispiness, but they were still good. I'm so excited to have a doughnut for Jazlyn that has the taste and texture of a bakery doughnut.

Jazzy’s Simple and Delicious Doughnuts

Tubes of safe refrigerated biscuits
Oil for frying
Cinnamon sugar, confectioner’s sugar, melted safe chocolate, Vanilla Glaze and/or Chocolate Glaze

Place 1/4 – 1/2" of oil in the bottom of a deep skillet over medium heat. Remove the biscuits from the tube. Use your fingers to punch a hole in the center then stretch the hole to form a doughnut. Once the oil is hot and bubbly, gently place some of the biscuits into the oil. In my skillet I was able to place 10 biscuits per batch. Fry until lightly golden, flip with tongs then fry until the other side is lightly golden. Remove the doughnuts from the oil onto paper towels to drain and cool for a few minutes. Roll the doughnuts into the toppings you desire. Best if eaten immediately. Leftovers can be stored in a tightly covered container but they will lose their crispiness.

Vanilla Glaze
1/2 cup confectioner’s sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp soy milk

Chocolate Glaze
1/2 cup confectioner’s sugar
2 tbsp cocoa powder
1 1/2 tbsp soy milk

For either of the glazes, thoroughly combine all of the ingredients until smooth.
