Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 packet Instant yeast
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Warm water
- 1 quarter cup Milk
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large Egg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the warm water, milk, melted butter, and egg until well combined.
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon or spatula. Once the dough begins to come together, knead it gently by hand for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place them evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
Cover the buns loosely with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise in a warm place for 10–15 minutes, or until slightly puffed.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown on top.
Remove the buns from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
