YUM YUM!!

Yummy vegan cinnamon buns from the May 2010 online newsletter of VegNews Magazine. I made them as directed and they were great. I probably didn't let them rise long enough, and probably they were on a rack too high in the oven. Still wonderful! Makes 16 to 18 rolls (calories are for 18).

A biscuit type cinnamon roll, these were the standard fare at my grandmother's home growing up!

A yummy low calorie version of cinnamon buns!

Instead of eating a Cinnabon Caramel Pecanbon at over 1000 calories - Try this one for 328 calories. Do not make these unless you are having a party! You will eat them all otherwise!

This is converted from the Upside down Pecan Bun recipe.

These are delicious, one bite cinnamon rolls. If you aren’t a fan of almond extract, I suggest substituting with vanilla for a milder flavor.

The warm sticky sensation of a cinnamon bun, without the enormous amounts of fat, calories, and sugar

Definately not low fat! But to die for!

When you want a great tasting treat, these are fast and easy. Much healthier than donuts, and the smell from baking is an added bonus.

Ooey gooey goodness - definitely a ONCE IN A WHILE indulgence!

From the 1961 booklet "Pennsylvania Dutch Cook Book"

These whole grain sweet buns are a good size without a whole lot of calories. Easy to freeze (buns and icing separately) and use when needed.

These lightened-up cinnamon buns take some time to make. Most of the time is in the rising and advance planning but it's a small price for the spectacular result.

These are a good splurge or for a crowd. They aren't super-light, but they have real ingredients, and are much healthier. (Adapted from King Arthur Flour Whole Grains Cookbook)
