Ingredients

- Prepare a pan with parchment paper. Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and 1 Tablespoon sugar.
- Cut in the vegan butter until you have an even distribution.
- Mix together your milk, flax egg, and vanilla. Add wet to dry and stir just until mixture comes together.
- Roll out onto parchment paper until it's about 10 inches by 12 inches.
- Brush gently with melted butter. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon mixed together. Sprinkle with cranberries. Roll up so that you have a 12 inch long roll. Press and seal the two ends of the roll and the long dough edges so that the filling won't leak out!
- Curl the roll slightly into a crescent. Make shallow slices every few inches along top to help maintain shape.
- Put in hot oven for 20 - 30 minutes or until roll is a deep golden brown.
- While still warm, glaze with an almond flavoured drizzle. Sprinkle with toasted almonds and then add more drizzle! You can use a few maraschino cherries to fancy this up!
- This is wonderful served warm but is great cold as well! Enjoy!
This actually stays fresh for a few days, even though it's a simple biscuit dough! Try adding different fruit in the roll. I'm going to try tart cherries chopped up... for my dad!
