Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 ml warm water
- 7 g active dry yeast
- 10 g sugar
- 500 g all-purpose flour
- 10 g salt
- 60 ml olive oil
- 150 g plant-based cheese
- 30 ml dairy-free milk (for brushing)
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the warm water, active dry yeast, and sugar. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, add the all-purpose flour and salt. Mix well to combine.
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the frothy yeast mixture along with the olive oil.
Mix the ingredients until a sticky dough forms. You can start mixing with a spoon and finish with your hands.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning it to coat the surface. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Punch down the dough to release the air. Divide the dough into 12 equal parts by rolling it into a long log and slicing.
Flatten each dough piece slightly and place about 12.5g of plant-based cheese in the center. Fold the edges over the cheese and pinch to seal, forming a ball.
Place the filled dough balls on the prepared baking tray, seam-side down. Leave some space between each roll.
Cover the tray with a cloth and let the dough balls rise for another 20 minutes.
Gently brush the tops of the rolls with dairy-free milk for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm for the best experience.
