OUTBACK BREAD RECIPE (SWEET MOLASSES BREAD)

Steps:

• Mix dry ingredients: all-purpose and whole wheat flour, salt, cocoa powder and yeast.
• Add wet ingredients: lukewarm water, oil, vegan honey or maple syrup and molasses. Mix until dough is formed.
• After dough is formed, knead for 8 to 10 minutes if using a stand mixer, 12 to 15 minutes if doing by hand. When ready, dough will feel tacky, smooth. If using a stand mixer, dough should stick to the bottom of the bowl, but not at your fingers.
• Cover dough with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let it rise until it doubles. It will take about 1 hour and a half. Remember to leave it in a warm spot.
• After the first rise, deflate dough. Flour the surface you'll be working on. Divide dough into 4 pieces.
• Using your hands or a rolling pin, open each piece in a rectangle. Roll into a cylinder and pinch to close.
• Place rolls in a lined baking sheet, lightly coating the bottom with cornmeal (if using). Leave some space between them as they will get bigger.
• Cover loosely with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let rise for 40 minutes more or until rolls almost double, and look puffy and light.
• Just before baking, you can top the rolls lightly with cornmeal for more texture.
• Baking. Preheat oven to 350°F. Uncover loaves and bake them for 30 to 35 minutes.
• Let loaves cool for 20 minutes before slicing. Store rolls in an airtight container or sealed bag after cooled.
