Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (approx.)
- 1 cup warm milk
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (optional, for extra richness)
- Pinch of salt
- Oil or butter for cooking (if frying or pan-cooking)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm milk. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg lightly. Add the foamy yeast mixture and stir to combine.
- Gradually add the flour and a pinch of salt, mixing until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. You may need to adjust the flour slightly.
- Add melted butter if using, and knead the dough for about 5-8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Once risen, shape the dough into small rolls, buns, or pancakes — depending on what you’d like!
- Cook or bake:
- For rolls/buns: Place shaped dough on a baking sheet, cover, and let rise again for 15-20 minutes. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 15-20 minutes until golden.
- For pan-fried bread: Heat a non-stick pan, lightly butter or oil it, and cook small rounds of dough on medium heat until golden on both sides.
- Brush with butter while warm, if desired. Serve fresh and enjoy — they’re truly irresistible!
If you’d like, I can help you name it more specifically — are they meant to be buns, pancakes, or fried bread?
