Ingredients

  • 2 3/4 cups Self-Rising Flour
  • 3 tablespoons Almond Milk
  • 1 1/2 cups Dairy-Free Yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup (to brush on top)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9-inch round baking dish with parchment paper and lightly oil it with cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. Step 2: In a mixing bowl or stand mixer bowl, combine the self-rising flour, salt, dairy-free yogurt, and almond milk.
  3. Step 3: Using a dough hook or rubber spatula, mix to form a dough ball. If using a spatula, knead the dough by hand for a few minutes until soft. The dough will be sticky; add a little flour if too wet or almond milk if too dry to achieve a smooth ball.
  4. Step 4: Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Lightly oil your hands and roll each portion into a smooth ball.
  5. Step 5: Arrange the rolls in the prepared baking dish, spacing them slightly apart as they will expand while baking.
  6. Step 6: Bake on the center rack for 25-30 minutes, until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Step 7: Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack. Brush the tops with maple syrup for a sweet glaze, or melted plant-based butter for a savory finish.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra flavor, add a teaspoon of garlic powder or herbs like rosemary to the dough before baking.
  • If you don’t have self-rising flour, you can make your own by mixing 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 4 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  • Use oat or soy yogurt if you prefer a different dairy-free option; just keep it plain and unsweetened for best results.
  • Brush rolls with melted vegan butter mixed with minced garlic and parsley for a tasty garlic bread twist.

Storage

Store the dinner rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze the rolls once fully cooled in a sealed bag for up to 1 month. To reheat, warm them in a 350°F (180°C) oven for 5-8 minutes or microwave briefly until soft and warm.

How to Serve

The warm tones of the bread contrast with the dark pan and cloth underneath. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use regular milk instead of almond milk?

Yes, you can substitute regular milk or any other plant-based milk in equal amounts without affecting the texture significantly.

Can I make these rolls without yogurt?

Yogurt adds moisture and helps the rolls rise. If you don’t have dairy-free yogurt, you can try using sour cream or buttermilk alternatives, but the texture may be slightly different.

  • 2 3/4 cups Self-Rising Flour
  • 1 1/2 cups Dairy-Free Yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons Almond Milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt

Topping

  • 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup (for brushing on top)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9-inch round baking dish with parchment paper and lightly spray or oil it to prevent sticking. Set aside.
  2. Mix the Dough: In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the self-rising flour, salt, dairy-free yogurt, and almond milk.
  3. Form Dough Ball: Using a dough hook attachment or a rubber spatula, mix until the ingredients come together into a sticky dough ball. If mixing by hand, knead for a few minutes to form a soft dough, adding extra flour if too sticky or almond milk if too dry to achieve the right consistency.
  4. Divide Dough: Divide the dough evenly into 8 portions. Lightly oil your hands to prevent sticking and roll each portion into a smooth ball.
  5. Arrange in Pan: Place each dough ball into the prepared pan, spacing them with room to expand as they bake.
  6. Bake: Bake the rolls on the center oven rack for 25-30 minutes, until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Glaze: Remove from oven and let the rolls cool on a wire rack. Brush with maple syrup for a sweet glaze or melted plant-based butter for a savory option before serving.

Notes

  • Use self-rising flour to avoid adding baking powder or baking soda separately.
