In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt.
Add in warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients, then mix until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough back into the bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about an hour or until it doubles in size.
While the dough is rising, cook the bacon strips in a frying pan over medium heat until crispy. Once cooked, place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle about 12x18 inches.
Evenly sprinkle the dairy-free shredded cheese over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Crumble the cooked bacon and sprinkle it over the cheese layer.
Sprinkle the chopped chives evenly over the top.
Starting from one long edge, carefully roll the dough up into a tight log.
Cut the log into 8 equal pieces and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spiral side up.
If using an egg wash, beat the egg and brush it over the top of each roll. Alternatively, brush with dairy-free milk.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
