In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, instant yeast, and salt. Mix well to distribute the ingredients evenly.
In a separate bowl, combine warm water and almond milk. Ensure the mixture is warm but not hot to touch (around 110°F).
Add the olive oil to the wet ingredients and mix.
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and gradually pour in the wet ingredients. Use a wooden spoon to stir the mixture until a sticky dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Place the kneaded dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces and shape them into small rolls.
Roll each piece of dough in whole wheat breadcrumbs until fully coated.
Arrange the rolled dough on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece to allow for expansion.
Cover the baking sheet with a damp cloth and let the rolls rise again for about 15 minutes.
Bake the pandesal in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Allow the pandesal to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your sugar-free pandesal warm or at room temperature.
