Ingredients

For the Dough:
1 cup 240 ml {Oat Milk}, 80-90°F
2 eggs (or ¼ cup flax egg)
⅓ cup 80 ml coconut oil
¼ cup 60 ml honey
1 teaspoon salt, optional
2 cups 265 g whole wheat flour
2½ cups 370 g high gluten bread flour
2 instant fast rise yeas
For the Filling:
½ cup 120 ml date syrup
1 cup 140 g golden raisins
2 Tablespoons 10 g ground cinnamon
1 cup 240 g {Cashew Cream Cheese}

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Fit the Food Processor with the Multi-Use Blade. Place the oat milk, eggs, coconut oil, honey, and salt into the Vitamix container and secure the lid. Start the machine and process for 30 seconds.
3. In a large mixing bowl combine the whole wheat flour, bread flour, and yeast and whisk together. Add this mixture to the food processor. Secure the lid, start the machine and process for an additional 30 seconds.
4. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5–6 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Spray the large bowl with cooking spray and place the kneaded dough into the bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm area for 60–90 minutes depending on temperature.
5. Turn proofed dough out onto a lightly floured surface and let rest for 10–15 minutes. Roll out dough to 12 x 20-inch rectangle. Spread the date syrup evenly and sprinkle with cinnamon and raisins leaving a 1" border around the edges. Brush edges with water.
6. Roll the dough from the long end tightly up to form a log. Pinch and seal the seam where the end of the dough meets the roll. Gently cut the rolls evenly.
7. Spray a 10 x 15 baking dish with cooking spray. Space rolls evenly into the baking dish and let double in size for 45–60 minutes. Place in preheated oven and bake for 15–20 minutes. Let cool slightly and brush with cinnamon cashew cream cheese.
