nectarine berry cinnamon roll bake-1-11

these buns are a little bit special as they are sat on top of a layer of fruit. originally I was going to make a crumble or cobbler and the idea to top it with little cinnamon rolls popped into my head, I’m glad it did as it was really good. I used coconut milk to make the buns and they were really soft and tasted wonderful. the great thing is the moisture from the fruit helps stop them from drying out with I find happens with homemade buns. I used blackberries and blueberries and nectarines but I bet it would be great with apple for fall.
