This is my favorite bread recipe. The rolls have a soft crust and are slightly sweet and yeasty. They are especially good straight from the oven but also keep well for a few days. I like to brush them with agave nectar instead of the margarine/oil to make them a bit sweeter. . Prep time includes preparation and rising times. Ingredients:
2 cups rice milk or 2 cups soymilk |
1/4 cup margarine or 1/4 cup oil, plus 1 t extra for brushing |
1/2 cup sugar, plus 1/4 t extra |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1/4 cup warm water |
2 tablespoons yeast |
5 1/2 cups flour |
1 tablespoon agave nectar (optional) |
Directions:
1. Heat rice/soy milk to scalding. Pour into a bowl with the margarine/oil, 1/2 cup of sugar and salt.
2. In another bowl combine the water, yeast and 1/4 t sugar and allow to sit for 5 minutes.
3. After the soy milk mixture has cooled, add the yeast mixture. Then add 1/2 cup flour and beat about 200 times. Allow to rest for 5-10 minutes.
4. Add 4 cups flour and beat well, then begin to mix with your hands. Add about 1 more cup flour or enough to produce a consistency of dough that can be turned out onto a floured board. Knead for 5 minutes.
5. Put dough into a well-oiled bowl and let rise for 1 hour. Punch down and form about 12 rolls. Place them on an oiled cookie sheet and allow to rise for 1/2 hour.
6. Bake at 375F for about 20 minutes or until the bottoms are brown and the tops are beginning to turn golden brown. Brush with margarine/oil/agave nectar.
