Sunday’s are for sleeping in and having brunch with friends and family, right? For me, the word brunch brings up scenes of long waits at trendy restaurants and typically there are very few vegan options other than fruit salad. While I do love fruit salad, I also love waffles and pancakes and other types of typical brunch fare. When I lived in Tampa, my friends and I would have brunch at home every once in a while and it was just as fun and delicious as going out to brunch at one of the fancy restaurants. Each of us brought a dish to share and we drank lovely mimosa’s outside in the beautiful Florida sun. Here I have compiled a list of awesome vegan brunch recipes you can make so that you can also enjoy the lovely Sunday brunch tradition at home.

#2. Cinnamon Rolls
I think everyone can agree that cinnamon rolls are god damn delicious right? What’s not to love about them? Warm, gooey, sticky and sweet. Whoever invented them should be praised because they are perfect, especially for Sunday brunch. But rarely do you come across a vegan cinnamon roll and even when you do, they are rarely as good as the non-vegan ones. I’ve tried vegan cinnamon rolls at a few restaurants and they are usually dry and dense and a total disappointment compared to the real thing. Well, this recipe by the Minimalist Baker is very easy and it’s actually really good. I have tried several recipes from the Minimalist Baker and all of them have been fantastic. This recipe is no exception. These rolls are fluffy and taste no different from cinnamon rolls made with eggs and milk. Your brunch guests will be very impressed by this recipe, guaranteed.
