Wash and dry the basil flower stalks. Place them in a clean and sterilized jar. Pour the olive oil till they are submerged and an inch of oil over the top of the stalks.

When the dough has doubled, punch it down and divide it into 10 parts. Roll them into smooth ball and place it in the mould .
Cover with a damp cloth and let them double in size. In the meantime preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
Brush them with water or soy milk.
Once they double in size and bake them until golden brown, about 20 to 22 minutes.
Remove the rolls from the oven, and brush immediately with the basil flower oil.
After 5 minutes, carefully transfer them to a rack.
Enjoy them for breakfast or dinner
