Ingredients:
– 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
– 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 package instant yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
– 1/2 cup milk
– 1/4 cup water
– 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
– 1 lightly beaten egg
Instructions:
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups flour,
sugar, salt, and instant yeast. Mix well.
Heat the milk, water and butter
in a small saucepan over low heat until the butter has melted and the mixture
is warm (about 43°C).
Be careful not to heat it too
much as this may kill the yeast.
Pour the warm milk mixture into the dry
ingredients and stir with a spoon until well combined.
Add the beaten eggs and mix until
the dough comes together.
Gradually add the remaining 3/4 cup flour
until the dough is soft and slightly sticky.
You may not need to use all the flour.
Transfer the dough to a lightly
floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
Shape the dough into a ball,
place it in an oiled bowl and rotate it so that all sides are coated with oil.
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and
let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Once the dough has risen, punch
out the air.
Place on a lightly floured
surface and divide into 12 equal pieces.
Form each piece into a ball shape, folding the
edges under to create a smooth surface.
Place the rolls on a greased
baking tray or greased baking dish, leaving some space between each roll.
Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let
rise for about 30 minutes.
While the rolls are rising,
preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).
Once the buns have risen, bake in
the preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove the buns from the oven and brush the
tops with melted butter to give them a shiny finish.
Let the rolls cool slightly before serving.
