Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 3 1/2 cups high-quality all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup plant-based butter (natural), softened
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup plant-based milk (natural), warm
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
Instructions
- Prepare the Yeast Mixture: Combine warm plant-based milk and sugar in a bowl, then sprinkle the yeast over the top. Let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes until foamy and activated.
- Mix the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the eggs, softened plant-based butter (natural), and the yeast mixture. Stir until the dough begins to come together.
- Knead Until Smooth: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic to develop gluten strength.
- First Rise: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean cloth, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 to 1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
- Shape the Rolls: Punch down the dough gently and divide it into equal portions. Shape each portion into a smooth ball and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each roll.
- Second Rise: Cover the rolls lightly with a cloth and allow them to rise for another 45 minutes for a fluffy and light finish.
- Bake to Golden Perfection: Brush the rolls with plant-based milk (natural) or an egg wash substitute, then bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown.
Notes
- Use room temperature ingredients to ensure better yeast activation and easier mixing.
- Knead well to build gluten strength for a fluffy yet structured crumb.
- Do not skip the second rise to achieve the classic lightness of brioche.
- Brush the rolls before baking for a beautiful golden shine.
- Cool the rolls completely on a wire rack to avoid soggy bottoms.
