Ingredients:
  • 2 Tbsp organic cane sugar
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 packet rapid-rise yeast
  • 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (sub up to 1/3 with whole-wheat pastry // plus more for kneading)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened plain almond milk
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 Tbsp vegan butter + more for topping
  • (Optional) Oats, dehydrated or roasted garlic, chia seeds or other goodies for topping (**apply toppings after buttering the tops right before sending into the oven to bake)


Directions:
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine first 3/4 cup flour, yeast, sugar and salt.
  • In a separate mixing bowl (or small saucepan over medium heat), heat the water, almond milk and butter until warm - about 105-110 degrees F. It should be the temperature of bath water. If it’s too hot, it will kill the yeast.
  • Add wet to the dry ingredients and whisk or beat for 2 minutes, scraping sides as needed.
  • Add another 1/4 cup more flour and beat for another 2 minutes. Then, add only enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic. Then let rest 10 minutes.
  • Divide the dough into about 12 pieces and place in a greased 8x8 dish or 8-inch round pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size - about 30-45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. (Optional) and brush the tops with additional melted vegan butter. 
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until fluffy and light golden brown.
  • Best fresh but can be stored after cooling in a bread basket at room temp with a clean and dry dish cloth as a cover for about 24 hours....if they last that long!
