Set aside.
Vegan Kolaches
Step 1
Stir together the strawberry almond milk, sugar, and yeast in a large bowl and allow to sit for a few minutes until foamy.
Step 2
Stir in oil, sea salt, and 3 cups flour, then mix until combined. Knead in the remaining 3 cups of flour, lightly grease a large mixing bowl with olive oil, then cover and allow to rise overnight in the fridge.
Step 3
When the dough doubles, portion into 1.5 oz pieces and shape into balls, then place onto a greased baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Gently cover with greased plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise again until doubled in size (about two hours).
Step 4
Afterward, press down the centers of the rounds with your thumb (coated in flour to prevent sticking) then fill each indent with 1 tsp of strawberry jam filling and sprinkle with the crumble / popsika on top.
Step 5
Finally, preheat the oven to 350°F. Remove the plastic wrap and brush the tops with melted vegan butter and bake for 15–18 minutes.
Step 6
Enjoy!
