Rolls:

  • 3 1/2 cups (490g) Better Batter Original Blend Flour or Bread flour
  • 1/4 cup (56g) sugar or maple sugar  
  • 100g 2 eggs or egg substitute (we like 100g Aquafaba or chia egg substitute)
  • 400g or 1 3/4 cups milk or milk substitute heated to 110°F
  • 1 Tbsp (11g) Instant yeast
  • 3 Tbsp melted butter or vegan butter (1 Tbsp for the batter and 2 Tbsp melted to brush on top of the finished rolls)
  • 1 tsp(5g) salt

Cinnamon Honey Butter:

  • 1/2 cup butter or vegan butter 
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar or maple sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon

 

Instructions

Mixing:

Dissolve milk or milk substitute, yeast, and sugar or honey, in the bowl of your electric stand mixer. Let stand about 5 minutes.

 

Add in the salt, butter, or vegan butter.  and eggs or egg substitute - mix well. Add half of the flour and beat on high speed until the mixture resembles a very thick batter, about 4 minutes. let rise for 30minutes to 1 hour or until the batter/sponge is fluffy (almost doubled).

 

Add the rest of the flour to the bowl and beat on high speed for another 4 minutes, or until mixture resembles very sticky cookie dough.

 

Shaping:

Preheat oven to 450°F. Meanwhile, prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add a small amount of flour to the parchment to avoid sticking.

 

Lightly flour a board and put the dough onto the board.

 

Roll the dough into a rectangle, about 1" thickness. Use any sharp object like a knife or pizza cutter to cut dough into squares or use a 3" square biscuit cutter.

 

Transfer rolls to prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with milk or vegan milk and let rise until doubled in size, about 35 to 45 minutes. Cover with wet towel. I like to spray heavily with water before baking this help with oven spring in the oven


Bake at 450 ° F for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown. Bake to an internal temperature of 210°F on a digital thermometer.

 

Brush hot rolls with melted butter or vegan butter after they come out of the oven.

 

Cinnamon Honey Butter:

Beat butter or vegan butter with a hand mixer until light and fluffy.

 

Add remaining ingredients and beat with mixer until well blended. Serve on warm rolls.
