Delightful and colorful Vegan Ube Rolls made with purple yam and coconut milk, perfect for sharing with family and friends.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup ube puree (fresh or canned)
- 3 cups all-purpose flour (or whole wheat/gluten-free as a substitute)
- 1 cup coconut milk (or almond/oat milk)
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/4 cup sugar (or coconut sugar)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup vegan butter (or olive oil)
Instructions
- Prepare the Ube: If using fresh ube, peel and boil until tender, then mash into a smooth puree. If using canned ube, measure it out and set aside.
- Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Stir to combine.
- Create the Dough: Gradually add coconut milk and ube puree to the dry mixture, stirring until a dough forms. Adjust flour if too sticky.
- Knead the Dough: Transfer to a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Let It Rise: Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm area for 1-2 hours until doubled in size.
- Shape the Rolls: Punch down the dough, divide into equal pieces, and roll each into a ball. Place in a greased baking dish.
- Second Rise: Cover and let rise for another 30-40 minutes.
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake the Rolls: Brush with melted vegan butter and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
- Cool and Serve: Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or filled with fresh veggies.
Notes
Make sure to knead the dough well for better texture, and allow ample time for rising.
