Making Soft Brioche Rolls!

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil reduces saturated fat while maintaining moisture.

milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: water

Almond milk is lower in calories and can be used for a dairy-free option.

sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: brown sugar

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

eggs

🥗Healthier: flaxseed meal

💰Cheaper: egg substitute

Flaxseed meal can replace eggs in baking for a vegan option.

Add 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 teaspoons instant yeast into a mixing bowl.

Pour in 1 cup of milk and add 2 whole eggs and 1 egg yolk into the bowl.

Use a paddle attachment to mix the ingredients until combined, then switch to a dough attachment.

Gradually add butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, while mixing the dough.

Knead the dough for 10 minutes until it is combined and slightly tacky.

If the dough is too sticky, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it is manageable.

Grease the sides of the bowl with oil, cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and place it in a warm area for 1 hour to rise.

After 1 hour, the dough should have doubled in size. Turn it out onto a table and divide it into 12 equal pieces.

Roll each piece into a ball and place them in a greased 9 by 13 pan, ensuring there is space between them.

Cover the pan with plastic wrap and let the rolls rise in a warm place for another hour.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Brush the tops of the rolls with leftover egg white.

Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.

Remove the rolls from the oven and brush the tops with 1 tablespoon of butter.

Let the rolls cool slightly before serving.
