Ingredients

Scale

Dough Ingredients

  • 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • ¾ cup warm water (about 110°F)
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup (natural)
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder (natural) (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Filling Ingredients

  • 1 cup plant-based goat cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary or thyme, finely chopped (optional)
  • Additional herbs or spices as desired, such as chopped sun-dried tomatoes, fresh basil, finely chopped spinach, pinch of cinnamon, or caramelized onions

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Activate the active dry yeast by dissolving it in warm water mixed with maple syrup (natural) and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes until frothy. In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and garlic powder (natural), then add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a warm spot and let it rise for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
  2. Prepare the Filling: While the dough rises, mix the plant-based goat cheese with fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme and any other desired flavorings. Keep the filling creamy and easy to spread inside the rolls.
  3. Shape the Rolls: Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down and divide it into equal portions. Flatten each portion into a small disk, spoon a generous amount of goat cheese filling onto each, and carefully roll the dough around the filling, pinching edges to seal. Place the rolls seam-side down on a lined baking sheet.
  4. Final Rise and Bake: Allow the shaped rolls to rise a second time for about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 18 to 20 minutes until golden brown on top. Let them cool slightly before serving to enjoy the warm, melty filling.

Notes

  • Ensure the water used to activate yeast is warm but not hot to avoid killing the yeast.
  • Do not overfill the rolls to prevent cheese from leaking out during baking.
  • Knead the dough thoroughly to develop a soft, fluffy texture.
  • Allow the dough to rise fully for light and tender rolls.
  • Folding fresh herbs into the dough adds an aromatic lift that balances the tangy cheese.
