Start with mixing your dough. Put the flour, sugar, salt and yeast in the bowl of your stand mixer. Mix together to combine. Put the milk and butter in a measuring jug and heat for 20-30 seconds in the microwave, until the butter starts to melt (make sure the mixture is not too hot otherwise it might kill your yeast).
From the long side, roll the dough into a log and cut in 12 rounds using a serrated knife. Arrange the rounds in the greased baking dish. Cover with a damp towel and let proof in a warm space for 35 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375° F. Bake the cinnamon rolls for 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown.

Use the paddle attachment, and just mix the flour and sugar together lightly on medium speed. Make a shaggy dough. Add in the dairy free yogurt, vanilla, and bloomed yeast mixture. Then mix the dough on medium speed with a paddle attachment until it forms a shaggy dough, about 3-5 minutes. Add in the vegan butter.
Lightly grease 12 individual brioche molds or the cups of a standard muffin pan. On a lightly floured work surface, roll the dough into an 8” x 24” rectangle. Brush the surface with the egg wash and sprinkle the filling (minus the 1/4 cup for the topping) evenly over the surface, leaving a 1/2” bare strip of dough along one of the long sides.
