3 ½-4 cups spelt flour (350-400g)
⅓ cup vegan cane sugar (60g)
2 ¼ teaspoon instant yeast (or 1 packet)
1 teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups warmed unsweetened dairy free milk, (temp should be between 110-120F) (340g)
2 tablespoon vegan butter, melted

In a stand mixer bowl or large bowl, add 2 cups of flour, sugar, yeast and salt. Whisk the ingredients together.
In a small bowl, combine the warmed milk and melted butter. Pour into the dry ingredients and then turn on the mixer and combine until incorporated (about 2 minutes).
If doing by hand, stir with a spatula until a cohesive sticky dough forms.
Once together, slowly add in ½ cup more flour at a time, combining after each, until a soft dough ball forms.
Knead the dough, adding more flour if necessary until smooth and elastic (about 8-10 minutes). It should slightly bounce back when touched. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.
*You may not use all the flour.
Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces, using a scale for accuracy. Shape into dough balls. Add into a greased 9x13 baking pan, seam side down. Cover and let rise in a warm location for 35-40 minutes or until doubled in size. While waiting for the rise, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
In a small bowl, combine the non-dairy milk and maple syrup for the topping. Brush each roll with half this mixture after the rise. Place in oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
Remove from oven. Brush with remaining half of the mixture. Serve warm.
