Ingredients
  

Tangzhong / Water Roux

  • 50 g Bread Flour
  • 300 ml Oat Milk
  • 30 g Plant Butter

Dough

  • 550 g Bread Flour
  • 40 g Caster Sugar
  • 7 g Yeast
  • 2 tbsp Aquafaba (chickpea water)
  • 100 ml Milk
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

Glaze

  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tbsp Maple Syrup

Instructions
 

Creating the Tangzhong / Water Roux

  • In a sauce pan add the milk and the butter
  • Heat gently until the butter has completely melted
  • Using a whisk, add the flour and stir it into the butter and milk
  • Whisk until thickened and leave to cool for 15 minutes
  • Stir occasionally so that it doesn't develop a skin

Dough

  • In a bowl warm up the milk so that it is lukewarm
  • Add 1 tsp of sugar to the milk and stir
  • Add the yeast to the milk and stir
  • Leave to develop for 10 minutes
  • Meanwhile, add the flour and sugar to a bowl
  • Once the time has passed for the Tangzhong and the yeast add these in
  • Add in the aquafaba and vanilla extract
  • Mix everything together until a dough forms. Either use a stand mixer with a dough hook or your hands
  • I used my hands to create the dough which took a few minutes
  • Once the dough has been formed, knead it for up to 5 minutes until it's smooth and less sticky
  • Leave the dough to rest in a bowl covered over in a warm place for 1 and a half hours
  • Once the dough has doubled in size, punch out the air and turn out on a worktop
  • Cut the dough into 8 equal pieces
  • One at a time, shape the piece into a ball, pinching the edges into the bottom
  • Place the roll onto a baking try lined with baking paper and work on the next one
  • Once all the rolls have been shaped leave them to rest for an hour
  • Pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees, Gas mark 5
  • Mix the glaze by mixing the olive oil and maple syrup
  • Using a pasty brush, lightly brush the tops of the rolls with the glaze
  • Cook the rolls for 15 to 18 minutes. Be careful with the tops as they can burn easily
  • Leave the rolls to rest between 30 minutes to 1 hour before you cut them
  • Enjoy!
