I have had several trials looking for a vegan version of a whole wheat pav recipe and I've finally found one that I work. These rolls turned out soft and fluffy. just what you need in a dinner roll. Apart from being vegan, I also tried to minimize gluten by using very little all-purpose flour.
Whole wheat pav is very simple to make and rise beautifully. Apart from the ingredients, the procedure is very simple. This is going to be my go-to recipe for breakfast too. I can pair this with a spicy curry such as Pav Bhaji and misal pav recipe for a delicious breakfast.
Dinner rolls also go very very well with a little tomato jam or vegan butter. Try it today and let me know if you like it. As long as you get a good rise from the yeast, the recipe will be a huge success.

- Put the dough back inside the mixing bowl, cover with a damp cloth. And rest in warm place for an hour.
