I love crescent rolls and I can never resist a chance to bake them up. I have had a regular version of vegan crescent rolls on this blog for a few years now and that’s pretty much the recipe I’ve always followed. But this time I wanted to try something different: I wanted to try healthy. Ergo, these Whole-Wheat Crescent Rolls. One of the best things about crescent rolls is just how pretty they are– and they become so with just a tad of work which suits me just fine. When I set out to make whole-wheat crescent rolls, one of the challenges was to make them light and fluffy as crescent rolls should be– not dense as wholegrain breads tend to be. To get to that goal without adding any white flour I did two things: I used whole-wheat durum flour. You can also just use regular whole wheat flour or white whole wheat flour if you can’t find durum flour. Check to get new recipe updates by email.
I also added a couple of tablespoons of vital wheat gluten to improve the bread’s structure and rise. If you do not have the vital wheat gluten, replace a cup of the flour with bread flour. Take the time to make these vegan all whole wheat crescent rolls on the weekend and I promise your family – and their health– will love you for it. I know I will be making these again and again.
