INGREDIENTS
- Warm milk – 200 ml
- Yeast – 4 g (1 teaspoon)
- Sugar – 60 g (3 tablespoons)
- All-purpose flour – 350–400 g
- Egg – 1
- Butter – 40 g (softened)
- Salt – ½ teaspoon
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Mix well and let it sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.
- Add the egg and softened butter, then mix until combined.
- Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Knead the dough for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Cover and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into equal portions. Shape into buns.
- Place buns on a baking tray, cover, and let them rise again for 20–30 minutes.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15–20 minutes or until golden brown.
- Brush with butter after baking for extra softness.
TIPS
- Make sure the milk is warm, not hot, or it will kill the yeast.
- Knead well for super soft and fluffy buns.
- Let the dough rise properly—this is the secret to airy texture.
- You can add chocolate chips or raisins for variation.
- Brush buns with milk before baking for a shiny golden finish.
