Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Whole wheat flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 cup Unsalted plant-based margarine
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the almond milk until it's just warm to the touch, about 110°F (43°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, instant yeast, and salt.
3. Add the warm almond milk, honey, and olive oil to the flour mixture. Stir until a dough forms.
4. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
5. Place the kneaded dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free area for about 60-90 minutes, or until the dough has doubled in size.
6. Once risen, gently punch down the dough to release the air. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a roll.
7. Arrange the rolls in a greased 9x13-inch baking pan. Cover and let them rise for another 30 minutes until they are puffy and nearly doubled in size.
8. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
9. Melt the plant-based margarine in a small bowl and brush it gently over the tops of the rolls.
10. Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
11. Remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy your heart-healthy classic butter rolls!
