Number Of Ingredients 10

Yeast​-​3 tsp (1 pack)
Sugar​-​4 T
Coconut Milk​-​1 ¼ Cup
Flour​-​4 Cups
Shortening​-​¼ Cup
Canola Oil​-​¼ Cup
Eggs​-​3 eggs
Salt​-​1 ½ tsp
Sausage​-​24 - 36 pieces, approx 2" (depends upon size)

Steps:

  • Dissolve 3 tsp. yeast and 1 T sugar in 1/4 cup of warm water. Allow to foam while you combine 3 T of sugar with 1 cup of coconut milk. Heat the sugar and milk mixture until it is warm to the touch. Add the yeast mixture to the milk mixture in a large bowl and add 1 3/4 cups of flour. Stir 100 times in one direction with a wooden spoon. Cover the sponge and allow to rest in a warm spot for 1 hour. After 1 hour, add 1/4 cup of melted shortening, 1/4 cup of canola oil, 1/4 cup of coconut milk, 2 egg yolks, 1 1/2 tsp. salt, and 2 1/4 cups of flour. Stir until combined. Lightly flour a working surface and knead adding no extra flour until the dough is smooth and elastic. Allow the dough to double in bulk which will take a couple of hours. You can let it rise in the fridge overnight and just warm it up to room temperature on the counter or in the oven with just the pilot light on before you continue. Divide the dough into quarters and roll each quarter into a rectangle about 1/8″ thick. Divide the rolled dough into 9 smaller rectangles and place a small sausage (about 2″ long) or piece of sausage into the center. Fold the dough over the sausage, pinching to seal. Place the sealed side down on a lightly greased baking sheet and paint with an egg wash made with 1 egg and 1 T coconut milk or water beaten well together. Preheat the oven to 400. Allow the kolaches to rise for about 20 minutes before you bake them. Bake them for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
