Ingredients
- 400 g All-purpose flour
- 50 g Sugar
- 7 g Salt
- 7 g Instant yeast
- 220 ml Unsweetened plant-based milk (such as almond, soy, or oat milk)
- 45 g Vegan butter, softened
- 15 ml Plant-based milk (for brushing)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 2
Warm the plant-based milk slightly to about 37°C (lukewarm) and pour it into the dry mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon until the ingredients start coming together.
Step 3
Add the softened vegan butter to the dough. Use your hands or a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment to knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rise at room temperature for 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
Step 5
Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently to release the air. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a smooth ball.
Step 6
Place the dough balls onto a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking tray, leaving some space between each bun. Cover the tray with a damp cloth and let the buns rest for another 30 minutes, allowing them to rise again.
Step 7
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Brush the tops of the buns with plant-based milk to help them achieve a golden-brown crust.
Step 8
Bake the buns in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden and cooked through.
Step 9
Remove the buns from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them plain, with vegan butter, or as part of your favorite meal!
