Ingredients

Ingredients for the Cinnamon Rolls

1/2 cup Water (Room Temperature)
2 teaspoons Instant Dry Active Yeast
2 Organic Range Free Eggs
1/2 cup Ghee
2 tablespoons Sugar in the Raw
1 teaspoon Himalayan Salt
3 1/2 ounces Vanilla Pudding Mix
2 cups Almond Milk
6 cups All Purpose Flour
1/2 cup Organic Dried Cherries
1/2 cup Pecans (Chopped)

Ingredients for the Filling

1 cup Ghee
1 tablespoon Cinnmon (Ground)
1 cup Brown Sugar
7.5 ounces Bonne Maman Cherry Preserves

Ingredients for the Frosting

8 ounces Cream Cheese
1/2 cup Ghee
1 teaspoon Organic Vanilla Extract
3 cups Powdered Sugar
1 tablespoon Almond Milk

Instructions

In a small, large bowl, combine the water, yeast, and sugar. Mix well and set aside.
In a large bowl, add the pudding mix, 2 cups of almond milk, ghee, eggs, and salt, yeast mixture, and blend well.
Gradually add flour to the mixture and place in the bread maker, and select the dough program for the kneading process. ( You may also knead by hand until the dough is smooth and then place in a greased bowl, covering it with saran wrap to allow the dough to rise in a room temperature area). Once the dough program has finished, leave the dough to rise until the dough has doubled in size.
Roll dough out on a floured cutting board. Using ingredients for filling: Mix ghee, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl and spread all over the dough. Then come back with the Bonne Maman cherry preserves and spread a layer of it all over the dough to about 1 inch away from the edges.
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Roll the dough up as tightly as feasible and slice the roll to be approximately 2" thick. Place on a lightly greased baking pan and bake for 15-20 minutes. Mix ingredients for frosting in a bowl. Remove when rolls have turned golden brown. While warm add a layer of frosting on each roll. Let it cool. Then add another layer of frosting. Serve warm and ENJOY!
