Instructions

Gluten-free Matcha EVOO Dinner Rolls

  1. In a large bowl, combine warm oat milk, sugar and active dry yeast. Set aside until frothy (~10-15 minutes).
  2. Mix in olive oil and whisk or stir for 15-20 seconds.
  3. Add remaining ingredients until well combined forming a sticky dough. Form a dough ball and place the dough in a clean bowl, cover and set aside for 30 minutes.
  4. Transfer the dough onto a floured work surface (use 1-to-1 or tapioca flour for dusting). Re-knead the dough for 1 minute and form a dough log.
  5. Prepare an 8x8” baking dish. Cut the dough log into 9 portions. Using your hands, roll each portion into dough balls and place them in the baking tray, lining 3 in a row. Brush the dough with olive oil. Cover and set aside for 1 hour.
  6. When ready to bake, pre-heat the oven to 350º F and lightly brush the dough with olive oil.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes. Once ready, the top of the rolls should be lightly crisp and golden-brown on the bottom. The rolls should sound hollow when you tap on them. Allow the rolls to cool on a wired rack before serving.

Potato Fritters

  1. Boil potatoes and garlic cloves until fork tender. Drain the water and mash the potatoes and garlic.
  2. Mix in remaining ingredients until well combined. Allow the mixture to cool down until it's safe to handle by hand.
  3. Using your hands, form 6 fritters and set aside.
  4. Place a large pan on medium heat. Once hot, drizzle a generous amount of oil and allow the oil to heat for 30 seconds to a minute.
  5. Gently place fritters onto the pan and cook on both sides until browning and crispy on both sides.
