Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups milk/use Non dairy for vegan version
• 3/4 tbsp instant yeast (or 1 tablespoon active dry yeast)
• 2 tbsp granulated sugar
• 2 tbsp butter/use Non dairy for vegan version
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/4 cup vital wheat gluten
• 3 - 1/2 cups whole wheat flour, give or take a little

Preparation

Step 1

Turn your Instant Pot on and press sauté button.
Add milk and the butter to the pot and wait for the butter to melt. Turn the Instant Pot sauté function off once the butter starts to melt. The pot will still be hot so everything will melt and heat up nicely.
IMPORTANT: At this point you might need to wait for few minutes to cool the mixture if the pot got too hot. The butter and milk mixture needs to be warm but not hot, so just test it with your finger. If it's too hot then the yeast won't work.
Add the sugar, yeast and mix.
Wait for 5 minutes to make sure that the yeast foams.
Add the vital gluten in the flour, salt and mix everything together just until a sticky dough is formed.
NOTE: if it's humid where you are, you might need to use more flour
Close the lid of your Instant Pot. Turn the valve to a sealing position.
Press the Yogurt button and choose time of 1 hour. You need a model of Instant Pot that has this button.
After one hour take the Instant Pot lid off. The dough should have at least doubled in size. It will be light and spongy.
Preheat the oven to 425F.
While the oven is preheating, form the rolls.
grease a 13x9" pan with oil or butter/
if you like coat your hands lightly in vegetable oil, it will help with the dough not sticking to your hands.
Take a little bit of dough and flatten it slightly, now imagine you are wrapping something inside that dough by stretching all the edges around it like a balloon.
