Almond milk is lower in calories, while water is a cost-effective substitute.

Mix 1/2 cup lukewarm water with 1/2 cup lukewarm milk in a bowl.

In a separate bowl, combine 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 3 teaspoons of instant yeast, 3 teaspoons of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt.

Rub 2 tablespoons of butter into the flour mixture until fully incorporated.

Gradually add the lukewarm water and milk mixture to the dry ingredients, a little at a time, mixing until combined.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until it's not sticky anymore, about 5 minutes.

Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

After the dough has risen, knead it again on a floured surface.

Divide the dough into equal portions to shape into rolls.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F).

Shape the portions into balls and place them in a greased baking dish.

Cover the rolls and let them rise again in a warm place for about 15-30 minutes until puffed up.

Prepare an egg wash by mixing 1 egg with 1/4 cup of milk.

Brush the egg wash over the rolls before baking.

Bake the rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown.
