Prep time: 30 minutes

Rest time: 60 minutes

Cook time: 0 minutes

Ingredients (makes 8 rolls):

For the dough:

• 75g cashew nuts
• 30g pecan nuts
• 30g hazelnuts
• 55g flaxseeds
• 1/8 tsp vanilla powder
• 4 tbsp maple syrup
• 1 tbsp water

For the filling:

• 30g dried apricots
• 30g raisins
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp ground ginger
• 1/8 tsp ground cardamom
• A pinch of nutmeg
• A pinch of ground cloves
• 60ml hot water
• 15 ml melted coconut oil

For the glaze:

• 30g cashew butter
• 1 tbsp maple syrup
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 2-4 tbsp water

Method:

1. To create the no-bake cinnamon roll batter, start by placing the cashews, pecans and hazelnuts on a baking tray and toast them in the oven at 150C for 10 minutes. Allow for them to cool down, then transfer them to a food processor. Add the flaxseeds, vanilla powder, maple syrup and water to the processor and pulse until the ingredients are broken down and form a sticky, firm dough.
2. Transfer the dough onto a parchment paper, top with a second parchment and roll out the dough evenly into a 7-inch square.
3. Place all ingredients for the filling into a food processor or blender and blitz until smooth. Spread the cinnamon filling across the cinnamon roll batter, then carefully roll it up firmly.
   Transfer the roll to the freezer for 1 hour.
4. Once firmed up, but not frozen, remove the roll from the freezer and slice it into 8 cinnamon rolls using a sharp knife.
5. For the glaze, whisk up the ingredients in a small bowl and drizzle the glaze over the cinnamon rolls with a spoon.
6. Store these no-bake cinnamon rolls in the fridge for up to 5 days and enjoy them alongside a
   cup of chai tea!
