Recipe Details
- Cuisine: American
- Servings: 8 rolls
- Prep Time: 20 minutes
- Cooking Time: 15 minutes
- Total Time: 1 hour 30 minutes (including rise time)
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup vegan cheese shreds (your favorite variety)
- 1/4 cup vegan butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Equipment/Utensils
- Large mixing bowl
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Mixing spoon or spatula
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Clean kitchen towel
Preparation Steps
- Activate the Yeast: In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
- Prepare the Dough: Add the olive oil, salt, and half of the flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until combined, then gradually add the remaining flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Knead the Dough: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough back in the bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
- Shape the Rolls: Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Flatten each piece into a small disc and place about 1 tablespoon of vegan cheese shreds in the center. Fold the edges over the cheese and pinch to seal, then roll the dough into a ball.
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Bake the Rolls: Place the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with melted vegan butter and sprinkle with garlic powder if desired. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and brush with additional melted vegan butter. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy the gooey, cheesy goodness!
