Instructions

1. In a measuring cup, mix the sugar and yeast into the warm water and let it stand for 5 minutes, until foamy. (With instant yeast, add it directly with the dry ingredients.)
2. Put the flour, baking powder and salt in a stand mixer bowl fitted with the hook.
3. Add the yeast mixture and knead until it forms a shaggy dough with no dry flour spots.
4. Add the 1/2 tablespoon softened vegan butter and knead until fully incorporated. Cover and let the dough rise until doubled.
5. Meanwhile, put the chopped scallions in a bowl with the flour and salt.
6. Heat the 3 tablespoons oil until bubbles form around chopsticks (about 160°F). Pour it quickly over the scallion mixture, stir to combine, and divide into 3 portions. Set aside.
7. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet.
8. Punch down the risen dough, transfer to a clean surface and divide into 4 equal portions. Roll each into a 10-inch circle using a lightly floured rolling pin.
9. Place one circle on the sheet, spread with one portion of filling leaving a 1/2-inch border, and top with a second circle. Repeat, ending with the last dough layer.
10. Place a small round saucer (about 3 inches across) in the centre as a guide. Cut from the saucer's edge to the edge of the dough into 16 equal wedges, leaving the dough under the saucer uncut. Remove the saucer.
11. Lift two neighbouring wedges, twist each away from the other 3 times, then pinch the edges tightly to seal into a pointed end. Repeat to make 8 petals.
12. Brush with melted vegan butter and sprinkle toasted sesame seeds in the middle.
13. Bake about 27 minutes until golden brown.
14. Brush with more melted butter as soon as it comes out of the oven. Serve warm.
