Ingredients

• 500 grams All-purpose flour
• 50 grams Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2.5 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 250 milliliters Whole milk
• 50 grams Unsalted butter
• 1 piece Large egg
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and instant yeast.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, heat the milk and unsalted butter over low heat until the butter melts and the mixture is warm to the touch (not hot).

Step 3

Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients. Add the egg and mix everything until a sticky dough forms.

Step 4

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.

Step 5

Lightly oil a clean bowl with vegetable oil and place the kneaded dough in it, turning to coat the surface of the dough. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Step 6

Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and arrange them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving some space between the buns.

Step 7

Cover the buns with a clean, damp towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes until they puff up.

Step 8

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Brush the tops of the buns with a little milk or an egg wash for a golden finish.

Step 9

Bake the buns in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped.

Step 10

Remove the buns from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.
