Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water (about 110°F / 43°C)
- 1/2 cup plant-based milk
- 1/4 cup melted plant-based butter (natural)
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Activate the Yeast: In a warm bowl, combine the warm water, granulated sugar, and instant yeast. Let sit for about 5 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy, indicating the yeast is activated and ready.
- Mix the Dough: Add plant-based milk, apple cider vinegar, melted plant-based butter (natural), salt, all-purpose flour, and natural gelling agent to the yeast mixture. Stir until a sticky dough forms.
- Knead the Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth, elastic, and slightly tacky but not overly sticky, developing gluten for a fluffy structure.
- First Rise: Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 to 1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
- Shape and Second Rise: Punch down the dough gently, divide into equal portions, shape each into a tight ball, and place close together in a greased baking dish. Cover and let rise again for 30 to 45 minutes.
- Bake to Golden Perfection: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown and hollow sounding when tapped. Brush immediately with melted plant-based butter (natural) for a glossy finish.
Notes
- Use warm water and plant-based milk to activate yeast efficiently for better rise.
- Allow dough to rise fully to ensure extra soft rolls.
- Measure flour accurately by spooning and leveling to avoid dense rolls.
- Brush rolls with melted plant-based butter (natural) immediately after baking for tenderness and aroma.
- Store rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days to maintain softness.
