Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
3 tbsp vegan butter, melted and cooled slightly

For brushing

2 tbsp plant-based milk
1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the warmed plant-based milk, yeast, and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer (or a large mixing bowl). Stir briefly and let stand for 5–8 minutes, until the surface is foamy and the mixture smells yeasty.
2
Add the flour, salt, and melted vegan butter to the yeast mixture. Mix on low speed with the dough hook (or stir with a wooden spoon) until a shaggy dough forms, then increase to medium speed and knead for 7–8 minutes, until the dough is smooth, slightly tacky, and pulls cleanly away from the sides of the bowl. If kneading by hand, turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
