Vegan English Muffin Toasting Bread Rolls are a delightful twist on the classic breakfast staple. With their signature nooks and crannies, these rolls toast up perfectly, creating a crispy exterior and a soft, airy interior. They’re a great way to enjoy the familiar flavor of English muffins while staying true to a plant-based diet.
I love making these rolls on lazy Sunday mornings when the house is still quiet. There’s something so comforting about the smell of bread baking, and these rolls deliver just that. They’re fantastic for spreading with vegan butter and jam, or as a base for a savory breakfast sandwich.
Recipe Details

- Servings: 8 rolls
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Cooking Time: 20 minutes
- Total Time: 1 hour 35 minutes (including rise time)
Ingredients
- 3 cups bread flour
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm almond milk
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 2 tbsp melted vegan butter
- 1 tsp salt
- Cornmeal, for dusting
Equipment/Utensils
- Large mixing bowl
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Wooden spoon or spatula
- Stand mixer with a dough hook (optional)
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper

Preparation Steps
- Activate the Yeast: In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm almond milk, sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
- Mix the Dough: Add the bread flour, melted vegan butter, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms. You can use a stand mixer with a dough hook for this step, or knead by hand on a floured surface for about 8 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
- First Rise: Place the dough in a lightly oiled 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: After the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a round roll and flatten slightly. Place the rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet that has been dusted with cornmeal.
- Second Rise: Cover the rolls with the towel and let them rise for another 20 minutes.
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake: Bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Serve: Allow the rolls to cool slightly before slicing and toasting. Enjoy them warm with your favorite toppings.
