Pour a can of coconut milk into a microwave-safe container and heat the milk until it's about 100-110 degrees Fahrenheit. It took me about 45 seconds. Set aside.
Add bread flour, instant yeast, kosher salt, organic cane sugar to a stand mixer mixing bowl and stir to combine.
Pour in the coconut milk and 2 tablespoon of plant-based melted butter and stir until just combined and the flour is moistened.
Using the dough hook on a stand mixer, knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes, until the dough is elastic. It may be slightly sticky.
Once the dough is kneaded and smooth, place in an oiled bowl, cover, and allow to rise for 1 hour or until it's about double in size.
Place the dough on a floured board and cut it into 15-16 equal-sized pieces. Roll the pieces into dinner rolls.
Place into a greased 9x13 baking dish. Cover and allow to rise for an additional 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 375F.
Brush the top of the dinner rolls with melted plant-based butter and bake in the oven on the middle rack for 25-30 minutes, until the tops are golden brown.
Once they are done baking, remove them from the oven and brush with more plant-based butter. Serve and enjoy.

Notes
Heating the coconut milk before adding it to the flour helps activate the yeast. If you forget, don't stress. It'll just take a little longer for your dough to rise.
If you don't have organic cane sugar, granulated sugar can be used, but then it won't be Vegan, but it will still be dairy-free.
The amount of flour used will depend on many factors. Start with 3 ½ cups and add more flour if needed.
