butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil adds healthy fats while margarine is often more affordable.

milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: water

Almond milk reduces calories, and water is a budget-friendly option.

instant yeast

🥗Healthier: active dry yeast

💰Cheaper: regular yeast

Active dry yeast can be used interchangeably but requires proofing.

sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: brown sugar

Honey adds natural sweetness, while brown sugar is often less expensive.

Combine flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.

Warm milk and butter in a saucepan until butter melts, then cool slightly.

Add warm milk mixture and water to the dry ingredients.

Mix until a shaggy dough forms, then add eggs and mix until combined.

Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Grease a baking dish with butter or cooking spray.

Turn the dough onto a floured surface and divide into equal pieces.

Shape each piece into a ball and place in the greased dish.

Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.

Remove from oven and brush with melted butter before serving.
