Basic Ingredients:
- Flour
- Milk
- Sugar
- Butter
- Yeast
- Salt
- Egg (for brushing on top)
Instructions:
- Activate the Yeast: In a bowl, warm the milk and dissolve the yeast with a bit of sugar. Let it sit for about 10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
- Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Add the yeast mixture and melted butter, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic.
- First Rise: Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place until it doubles in size (about 1-2 hours).
- Shape the Buns: After the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into small, even portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place them on a baking tray.
- Second Rise: Cover the buns and let them rise again for another 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Bake: Brush the tops of the buns with a beaten egg and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
These buns are versatile and can be enjoyed fresh out of the oven or stored for a few days. For detailed recipes, you can check out RecetasGratis or Directo al Paladar.
