In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, granulated sugar, and salt.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the warm water, almond milk, and coconut oil, stirring until the coconut oil is melted. Ensure the mixture is warm but not hot.
Add the warm liquid mixture to the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl.
Stir with a wooden spoon until a soft dough begins to form. If the dough is sticky, sprinkle in a little more flour.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Once risen, punch down the dough and turn it out onto a floured surface. Roll it into a rectangle about 30x25 cm in size.
Spread the tahini evenly over the surface of the dough, then sprinkle a layer of sesame seeds over the tahini.
Starting from the long side, tightly roll up the dough into a log. Pinch the edge to seal.
Cut the log into 8 equal rolls and place them, cut side up, in a greased baking pan.
Cover the rolls with a damp cloth and let them rise for another 30 minutes, or until slightly puffed.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Before placing the rolls in the oven, sprinkle any remaining sesame seeds on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown on top and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving.
