In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the coconut oil to the dry ingredients and use a fork or pastry cutter to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a small bowl, combine the almond milk and vanilla extract.
Gradually add the almond milk mixture to the flour mixture, stirring just until a dough forms.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until smooth. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Roll the dough out into a rectangle roughly 1/4-inch thick.
In a small bowl, mix the raisins, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.
Spread the raisin mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Starting from a long side, gently roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seam and ends to seal.
Place the log seam-side down and cut it into 8 equal pieces.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Arrange the cut pastries on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Allow the pastries to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
