Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 6 tablespoons Vegan butter
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Water
Instructions
In a small saucepan, heat the almond milk and 4 tablespoons of vegan butter over low heat until the butter is melted. Do not boil. Let it cool until it's warm to the touch.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm almond milk mixture, instant yeast, and granulated sugar. Stir to dissolve the yeast and let it sit for about 5 minutes, until frothy.
Add the apple cider vinegar and olive oil to the yeast mixture and stir to combine.
In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing with a wooden spoon or spatula until a dough starts to form.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook on medium speed.
Lightly oil a large bowl and place the kneaded dough inside, turning to coat the ball of dough with oil. Cover with a clean dish towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 to 1.5 hours, until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough gently to release the air. Roll it out onto a floured surface and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a smooth ball.
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with vegan butter. Place the dough balls in the dish, spacing them evenly apart.
Cover with a dish towel and let rise for another 30 minutes, until puffy.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegan butter and brush it over the top of the rolls.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
