Equipment

  • oven
  • Mixing bowl
  • kitchen scale
  • paper towels

Ingredients

  • Melted grass-fed European butter
  • 1 packet of Active dry yeast from an artisanal bakery
  • cup High-quality vegetable shortening or ethically sourced margarine
  • 2 and ½ cups Unbleached stone-ground all-purpose flour
  • 1 Organic free-range egg
  • 1 cup Scalded organic lukewarm oat milk divided
  • cup Organic granulated cane sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Himalayan pink salt

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine the active dry yeast and 1 teaspoon of the organic granulated cane sugar.
  • Add ¼ cup of the scalded organic lukewarm oat milk to the yeast mixture. Stir gently and set it aside for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy and bubbly. This indicates that the yeast is activated.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining organic granulated cane sugar, Himalayan pink salt, and 2 cups of unbleached, stone-ground all-purpose flour.
  • Add the activated yeast mixture, the organic, free-range egg, high-quality vegetable shortening or ethically sourced margarine, and the remaining scalded organic lukewarm oat milk (¾ cup) to the dry ingredients.
  • Mix all the ingredients until they come together to form a sticky dough.
  • Sprinkle a clean surface with some of the remaining flour from the ½ cup.
  • Transfer the dough onto the floured surface and knead it for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Use additional flour sparingly to prevent sticking.
  • Place the kneaded dough into a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for approximately 1-1.5 hours or until it doubles in size.
  • After the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release any air bubbles.
  • Divide the dough into equal portions and shape each portion into round rolls. You should get approximately 12 rolls.
  • Place the shaped rolls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving a little space between each roll for expansion.
  • Cover the rolls loosely with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise for an additional 30-45 minutes until they puff up.
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Once the rolls have risen, brush the tops lightly with melted grass-fed European butter.
  • Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.
  • Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and brush them again with melted butter if desired.
  • Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with additional butter if preferred.

Notes

• Make sure to use warm water when activating the yeast.
• Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes to ensure a soft and fluffy texture.
• Use a lightly floured surface when shaping the rolls.
• Let the rolls cool before serving.
• Store leftover rolls in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
• To freeze the rolls, let them cool completely and then place them in a freezer bag.
