Takes 30 minutes
Serves 16
Ingredients
Dough
- 400 g self-raising flour (3¼ cups)
- 70 g icing sugar (½ cup)
- ½ tsp salt
- 160 g cold vegan butter (cut into cubes ⅔ cup)
- 100 ml strong black coffee (scant ½ cup)
- 100 ml oat milk or milk of choice
Coffee Tiramisu Filling
- 4 tbsp vegan butter
- 180 g brown sugar (¾ cup + 2 tbsp)
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground coffee
Cream Cheese Icing
- 130 g vegan cream cheese (½ cup + 1 tbsp)
- 130 g icing sugar 1 cup
- ½ vanilla extract
- 2 tsp oat milk
To Finish
- 2 tbsp cacao powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C or an air fryer to 160°C on the bake setting. Grease a 2lb loaf tin (approx. 900g).
- Add the self-raising flour, icing sugar and salt to a large mixing bowl and stir to combine.
- Add the cold vegan butter and use your fingertips to rub it into the flour mixture until it resembles damp sand or breadcrumbs.
- Add the coffee and oat milk and stir until the dough comes together into a soft clump. Lightly dust the dough with flour and knead for 2–3 minutes, until it holds its shape.
- Dust your work surface with flour and roll the dough out into a rectangle, approximately 45cm × 30cm. The dough should be soft but easy to handle.
- Melt the vegan butter for the filling. In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon and ground coffee.
- Spread the melted butter evenly over the dough, right to the edges. Sprinkle over the coffee cinnamon sugar.
- Starting from the long side of the rectangle, tightly roll the dough into a log.
- Cut the log in half, then cut each half in half again, and repeat once more until you have 16 pieces. Place the swirls cut-side up in the greased loaf tin.
- Bake in the oven for 25 minutes, or air fry for 18–20 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
- While the swirls are baking, make the icing. Add the cream cheese, icing sugar, vanilla and oat milk to a bowl. Mix with a fork until smooth and creamy.
- Remove the swirls from the oven or air fryer and drizzle over the cream cheese icing. Finish with a dusting of cacao powder.
