Ingredients

For The Dough

Vegan Sausage Egg and Cheese Filling

  • 8 ounces vegan breakfast sausage (we used Lightlife ground)
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ¾ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon rosemary
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 bottle Just Egg cooked, with kala namak to taste (or 1 recipe for tofu scramble)
  • 4 tablespoon vegan butter, softened (not melted)
  • 2 cups vegan cheddar, divided

For the Topping

  • ¼ cup vegan butter, melted

Instructions

For the Dough

  • In a large bowl or stand mixer bowl, whisk together 3 ½ cups flour, yeast, and sugar. 
  • Add in the water and butter. Using a spatula or dough hook, fold until mostly combined.  Sprinkle a little more flour if needed to not be sticky and form a ball.  
  • Once ball is formed, grease the same bowl mixed in and place the dough ball back into the bowl. 
  • Cover with a towel or plastic wrap and let sit for 60-90 minutes in a warm, draft free place until doubled.

For the Filling

  • While the dough is rising, cook with vegan sausage into crumbles with the sage, thyme, pepper, rosemary, cayenne, and nutmeg. Set aside to cool.
  • Cook the Just Egg with kala namak to taste or make tofu scramble. Set aside to cool.
  • Once dough has doubled in size, pull out the dough and lay it out on a lightly floured surface.  
  • Using a rolling pin, roll dough into an approximately 18×12″ rectangle.  
  • Spread the softened butter across the dough.
  • Sprinkle evenly the vegan sausage crumbles, the vegan egg and 1 ½ cups of the vegan cheese.
    *DO NOT ADD THESE HOT.
  • Carefully roll into log from the longest side up. OnCe completely rolled, place seam side down. Cut into 12 even sized pieces.
  • Place into a greased 9x13 baking dish and cover.
  • Let rise for 45-60 minutes.
  • Preheat over to 375 degrees F.
  • Right before going into the oven, brush the tops with ⅓ cup vegan butter and sprinkle the remaining cheese.
  • Place dish inside and bake in oven for 35-45 minutes or until dough is cooked inside.
  • Remove rolls from oven when done.
  • Store leftovers in an air tight container in the fridge.
