White Bun Recipe

Ingredients

• • 700 grams of wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon of salt

• • 400 ml warm milk
  • 4 tablespoons of sugar
  • 8 grams of dry yeast

• • 2 eggs
  • 80 ml sunflower oil
  • 10 grams of baking powder

• • 10 ml apple cider vinegar
  • 50 grams of butter, melted
  • 1 egg yolk

• Milk (for brushing)
• Sesame seeds (for topping)

Directions

1. 1. Activate Yeast: In a small bowl, mix the warm milk and sugar. Sprinkle the dry yeast over the top and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.

1. 1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the wheat flour, salt, and baking powder.
   2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, sunflower oil, and apple cider vinegar. Add the melted butter and mix well.
   3. Form Dough: Add the yeast mixture and the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.

1. 1. Knead Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
   2. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
   3. Shape Buns: Punch down the dough and divide it into equal portions. Shape each portion into a bun and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

1. 1. Second Rise: Cover the buns with a towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
   2. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
   3. Prepare for Baking: In a small bowl, beat the egg yolk with a little milk. Brush the tops of the buns with this mixture and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

1. Bake: Bake the buns in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown.
2. Cool: Let the buns cool on a wire rack before serving.
