#cookwithhuma I always make and store batches of bakery goods like cake rusk, banana bread, butter cookies etc. It speeds up breakfast prep in the mornings when I have to rush to university, as well as create new variations with a variety of fruits and nuts! It also helps to cut down on extra ingredients and to make outdoor goodies with the same taste in a more healthy way. Happy Cooking, Happy Sharing!

Steps

40 minutes

1

Sift flour with yeast, salt, and sugar. Make a well in the centre and crack 1 egg in it.
2

Whisk egg gently and fold into flour mixture. Slowly add lukewarm milk. Knead to form smooth dough.
3

When dough is kneaded without air bubbles, lather with 1 tbsp oil. Cover and leave to rise for 1-2 hrs in an airtight box.
4

After the dough has risen, punch it to remove air, again knead gently. Spread some flour onto a smooth surface.
5

Take dough out of the box, spread onto smooth surface. Knead it. Cut into equal parts.
6

Make medium sized balls of the dough, place in greased baking tray. Cover tray with samp cloth and leave for 30 minutes or 1 hour.
7

Remove cloth, baste buns with egg wash. Sprinkle sesame seeds and put tray in preheated oven at 180°C for 25 minutes.
8

Check the buns by inserting toothpick. Give top grill heat to bring out colour for 2 minutes.

Remove tray with caution. Brush buns with melted butter. Cool down completely and serve.
