Fluffy Vegan Spelt Rolls

Ingredients

• x
• I haven’t posted a recipe that’s not gluten-free in a while because I’ve been trying to avoid gluten since January to see if it’s causing of any of my health concerns (which I also wrote about in this Cleanse review).
• The jury is still out. I feel fine on the few occasions I have eaten it – i.e. no stomach cramps – but I’m still on the fence about whether it really adds any benefit to my diet. So for now, I avoid it.
• With that being said, one exception I think I may make moving forward is whole grain, easy-to-digest flours like spelt or fermented sourdough bread on occasion.
• Besides, making fluffy, Thanksgiving-worthy rolls gluten-free is virtually impossible in my experience. So today, I make exceptions and indulge.
• This recipe is simple, requiring just 7 ingredients and extremely simple methods!
• The dough is a mixture of almond milk, yeast, cane sugar, salt, olive oil, and spelt flour. After resting, roll into balls and top with oats. Just a 1-hour rise before going into the oven where they bake up to golden perfection (see above)!
• I hope you all LOVE these fluffy, tender, slightly nutty spelt rolls that are reminiscent of Cheesecake Factory’s Whole Grain Bread (which is kind of to die for). These are eerily close in texture and flavor.
• If you try this recipe, let us know! Leave a comment, rate it, and don’t forget to tag a photo @minimalistbaker on Instagram. Cheers, friends!
