- If using a bread machine:
- Add the ingredients according to the manufacture's instructions. Mine is liquids first, then dry ingredients.
- Set machine to the DOUGH cycle and press start.
- When it beeps, check to see that the dough has doubled. If not, leave the lid closed and allow to sit for an additional 30 minutes.
- Divide dough into 8 equal pieces and roll into lightly flattened balls.
- Place dough balls on a silpat or parchment lined baking sheet. Cover and allow to rise until doubled, about 1½ hours.
- Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with toppings if desired.
- Bake in a preheated 400 degree oven for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and place on a wire rack. Allow to cool completely.
- If using a stand mixer:
- Add the yeast to the warm milk and allow to sit for five to ten minutes until bubbly.
- Add mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer, and add remaining ingredients.
- Beat until thoroughly combined, about four minutes.
- Place in a greased bowl and cover. Set aside in a warm, draft free location to rise for 1½ hours.
Substitute milk of your choice for the coconut milk if desired.
