Easy Vegan Milk Bread - SOFT + SPRINGY Sandwich Bread + Buns | Mary's Test Kitchen

This easy vegan milk bread comes out soft, squishable and oh-so-fluffy! It's an easier version of Chinese Milk Bread or Hokkaido Japanese milk bread using a one-bowl bread recipe with a modified tangzhong technique to ensure a tender texture without adding any eggs or dairy. And because you don’t have to do anything on the stove-top, it’s easier than my original Vegan Milk Bread. The hardest part about this recipe is just waiting! But it will be worth the wait, trust me.

[@lisahoang3880]

How do I make this sugarless? Or is that too much to ask for?

[@aliceis9068]

@@lisahoang3880 you'll probably need the initial sugar or appropriate substitute to feed the yeast in the beginning (i'm not sure what would work besides possibly??? a liquid alternative??? like agave?? but i rly don't know esp. given that it's to help the yeast have something to eat from the start) but the sugar for the flavor in the bread can certain be replaced by a sweet alternative or likely omitted entirely!!!

EmmyMadeInJapan just made fruit sandos (Japanese sandwiches) and those are made with milk bread! Just make a vegan version of the whippe cream and boom vegan fruit sandos that are cute and tasty af.

[@marystestkitchen]

That's wonderful! Way to go!

[@伏見猿比古-k8c]

They sell vegan whipped cream in stores, but if your store doesn't sell it you just need to chill canned coconut cream for a few hours ,flip it over, open it drain the liquid that has pooled at the top, so you just get the solid cream part and whip that with powdered sugar and vanilla extract.

[@bondpaz]

When you say so casually “if you like big buns and you cannot lie” 😆👌🏽 I love the way you pinch their little bottoms. 🤗 Spectacular! Thanks Mary.

I mean, I made my buns big because I couldn't lie and wanted to show u, but I was just so absorbed in the tenderness of the 🍞!

Mary, I am a new subscriber and just getting through many of your amazing and extremely helpful videos. I am trying to perfect bread baking at a higher altitude (about 4800 ft.) so I am learning the do's and don't's the extra's and the reductions. Your recipe doesn't have most of the stuff one at high altitude needs to be overly concerned with, yay! I need to increase the heat, possibly slightly increase flour and keep an eye on the water. Easy -peasy! Definitely going to give this one a try! Thank you! 👍💖😉

Good luck! I'm at 3428 ft if that helps at all :-)

Made this bread yesterday, although it didn’t look as good as yours, it was still tasty and amazing. I’m so proud and thank you so much for being thorough in your details. I used vegan margarine for the recipe though. I wonder if that had an impact on the bread. It’s still very tasty

So cool to see a refined (easier!!) Recipe from you.. I also just want to say.. as a disabled vegan dude with kids, people would probably also love if you ever make sweet variation on this like how there are chocolate orange Brioche recipes that aren't vegan or caramel cream milk cream stuff.. cinnamon etc. Regardless, this is the next recipe I'm gonna try with my daughter's and I thank you for it

For some reason lately I've really been wanting to veganise those McCain Pizza Pockets from my childhood (specifically the 3 Cheese flavour) and seeing these buns has really fuelled that desire haha. I'd love to see you do a video where you fill these buns with different things (maybe even pizza flavoured things...) ! Thanks as always. Ps maybe I missed the memo, but why are these videos unlisted/linked?

[@marystestkitchen]

Great idea, Sarah. Thanks so much for the suggestion. I loved Pizza Pockets too :-) Even though my parents would NEVER buy them. As for the unlisted status, I held off on publishing videos as these were created before Memorial Day. After that weekend and the protests that ensued, I wanted to give space to more important issues so I held off on publishing here on KZbin. These videos will be officially published soon.
