Cheap Selfmade Vanilla Sugar

Making selefmade vanilla sugar is so simple that I never thought about writing it down. However, I noticed that I referenced this type of vanilla sugar quite often in my recipes so I thought I add it so its clear why I would add 50g vanilla sugar to something like tiramisu.

Cinnamon Rolls

My favorite vegan pastry. In general I always prefer the vegetarian ingredients as butter and milk over their vegan counterparts. This recipe however, thanks to tons of sugar and cinnamon, is one where the difference in taste is barely noticeable, even in a side by side comparison.
