Add dry yeast to a mixing bowl.

Add sugar and salt to the bowl with yeast.

Add non-dairy butter and water to the mixture.

Use a spatula to combine all ingredients.

Knead the dough by hand for 10 to 15 minutes until soft and elastic.

If the dough is dry, add one tablespoon of water at a time; if too sticky, add one tablespoon of flour.

Place the dough on a clean surface to knead for better control.

Grease a bowl with oil and place the dough inside to prevent a dry crust.

Allow the dough to proof for one hour or until doubled in size.

Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide it into approximately eight pieces.

Pull triangle sides from one point to the middle to form small balls.

Flatten each piece of dough lightly with flour.

Roll each piece from one end to the other to form a log, keeping the thickness in the center.

Optionally, add a mixture of garlic, herbs, and butter to the center of the dough.

Pinch the edges to secure the filling and continue rolling out the dough.

Cover the rolled dough for an additional 10 minutes.

Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
