Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup +2 tbsp 270 ml almond milk or water
  • 1 tablespoon dry yeast
  • 2 tablespoons of maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon tahini
  • 3 cups 350g whole wheat or spelt flour
  • 2 tablespoon potato starch
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ -1 teaspoon rosemary
  • ½ -1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 toasted garlic clove

For brushing:

  • 2 tablespoons Aquafaba
  • 1 roasted garlic clove
  • fresh herbs for garnish optional

Instructions

  • First, dissolve the yeast in water with the maple syrup. Let the yeast water stand for about 10 minutes. You should see that the yeast starts to work. The yeast becomes foamy.
  • Mix the flour, potato starch and add the yeast mixture, as well as the tahini. Now knead the dough with a food mixer and dough hook for about 10 minutes.
  • The dough should be a bit sticky, but separate from the edge of the bowl. Now add the thyme, rosemary, 1 roasted garlic clove and sea salt. And knead it again properly.
  • Now use a damp cloth to cover the bowl with the dough and leave it for an hour. Now knead again with your hand and let it rise again. Divide the dough into 8 equal parts and place it in a baking form lined with baking paper. I use an 8 inch (20 cm) springform or cast-iron pan. Cover the buns again and let them rise again for about 30-60 min. I usually start to preheat the oven when the rolls start to touch.
  • When the oven is preheated to 350°F (175°C), then you can put the bread rolls in the oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes or until they have a nice color.
  • Beat the buns with the aquafaba, garlic, and add some fresh herbs, if necessary.
