Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.25 cup Warm water
- 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) Active dry yeast
- 0.5 cup Pineapple juice
- 0.25 cup Low-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 1 Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 teaspoon Salt
- 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
- Cooking spray
- 2 tablespoons Melted light butter
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Let it stand for about 5 minutes or until the mixture becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, Greek yogurt, honey, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the yeast mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until everything is fully incorporated.
Gradually add salt and 3 cups of flour to the wet ingredients, mixing continuously. Reserve the additional 0.5 cup of flour for kneading.
Once the dough starts to come together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, gradually adding the remaining 0.5 cup of flour as needed, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Lightly coat a large bowl with cooking spray and place the dough inside, turning it to coat with the spray. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm, draft-free environment for 1-2 hours or until the dough has doubled in size.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball.
Arrange the dough balls in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Cover them again and let rise for another 30-45 minutes until they have puffed up.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until they are golden brown on top.
Once baked, brush the tops of the rolls with melted light butter for a glossy finish.
Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these low-fat Hawaiian sweet rolls as a delightful side or treat.
