Instructions

  1. In a bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm milk, then let it rest for 5 minutes.
  2. Mix the flour and salt, then add the milky mixture, the beaten egg and the softened butter.
  3. Knead for 10 minutes until you get a smooth, elastic dough that no longer sticks to your hands.
  4. Cover and let it rise for 1 hour in a warm place, until it has doubled in volume.
  5. Shape 6 small round buns and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them out.
  6. Let rise again for 20 minutes, then brush with beaten egg yolk.
  7. Bake at 180 °C (350 °F) for 25 to 30 minutes, until the buns are well golden and sound hollow when tapped.

Variations and tips

Sweet version. Add the raisins and cinnamon to the dough before letting it rise.
