Vegan Charcoal Slider Buns
I am so happy with these buns or rolls or whatever you want to call them. I am not sure why they are quite as soft as they are, but whatever, they work really well for so many things. You will of course find that your teeth get a bit scary looking if you go hard, due to the charcoal powder, which by the way, appropriately is also coconut based. Gotta love the theme happening here right?
They are vegan, if you are looking for a recipe that suits the vegans in your house. They also last for a seriously long time, I think because of the roux in the method. Let me know what you think. I love them!
