Soft, fluffy, and entirely plant-based, this Vegan Homemade Roll Bread recipe is the perfect addition to any meal. Made with simple pantry staples like all-purpose flour, active dry yeast, and olive oil, these rolls are incredibly easy to prepare while delivering bakery-quality results. The dough rises to pillowy perfection and is brushed with non-dairy milk for a golden finish, with the option to sprinkle on sesame seeds for added texture and flavor. Whether served alongside soups, salads, or simply enjoyed fresh from the oven with vegan butter, these rolls are a versatile, crowd-pleasing favorite. Ready in just under two hours, including rising and baking time, these golden-brown rolls make homemade bread accessible and 100% dairy-free!
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy, indicating that the yeast is activated.
Add the olive oil and salt to the yeast mixture and stir well.
Gradually add the all-purpose flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough begins to form.
Once the dough comes together, transfer it to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 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 doubled in size.
Punch down the risen dough to remove excess air. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a smooth ball.
Arrange the dough balls evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each roll.
Cover the rolls loosely with a kitchen towel and let them rise again for about 30 minutes until they nearly double in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush the tops of the rolls with non-dairy milk and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your warm, homemade vegan roll bread!
