Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams All-purpose flour
- 60 grams Pumpkin seeds
- 7 grams Instant yeast
- 15 grams Sugar
- 40 grams Unsalted butter, melted
- 250 ml Milk
- 1 large Egg, beaten
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, pumpkin seeds, instant yeast, and sugar.
In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter and warm milk. Ensure the milk is just warm, not hot, to help activate the yeast without killing it.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing with a wooden spoon or a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment.
Once the dough begins to come together, add the beaten egg and continue kneading for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly greased bowl. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
After the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air, then divide it into 12 equal pieces.
Shape each piece into a small roll by tucking the edges underneath, creating a smooth top, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and allow them to rise for an additional 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
Once the rolls have risen, place them in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
