Description

These soft and fluffy buns, inspired by a Masterchef class, are perfect for breakfast or as a side to any meal.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 10 cups (1 kg) all-purpose flour
  • 2 packets (7 g each) instant dry yeast
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 0.4 cups (100 ml) vegetable oil
  • 0.4 cups (100 ml) milk
  • 5.2 oz (150 g) margarine
  • 0.8 cups (200 ml) water

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, instant dry yeast, salt, and sugar.
  2. Add the eggs, vegetable oil, milk, and water to the dry ingredients and mix until a rough dough forms.
  3. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rest for 20 minutes.
  5. Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Brush each piece with vegetable oil and let them rise for an additional 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
  6. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  7. Shape each piece of dough into buns and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack before serving.

Notes

These buns use margarine instead of butter, which may affect their texture. They are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days. For a richer flavor, you can substitute margarine with butter if preferred.
