Directions
Step 1
In a saucepan, warm the coconut milk and pineapple juice over low heat until just warm (about 110°F or 43°C), then remove from heat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm coconut milk and pineapple juice with the yeast and 1 tablespoon of the sugar. Stir and let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
Step 3
Add the remaining sugar, melted vegan butter, vanilla extract, salt, and turmeric to the yeast mixture, stirring to combine.

Gradually add the flour, 1 cup at a time, stirring with a wooden spoon until a dough begins to form.
Step 5
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Step 6
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Step 7
After the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air and divide it into 12 equal pieces.
Step 8
Shape each piece into a ball and place them in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
Step 9
Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let them rise again for 30 minutes until puffy.
