Instructions

  1. Allow the frozen dough to rise overnight in the fridge (if using fresh let it rise to double it's size).
  2. Knead in your mixer for 5 minutes (by hand 10 minutes).
  3. Add all the ingredients to the dough and knead for a further 10 minutes.
  4. Cut into 14 equal pieces (more if you want smaller buns).
  5. The dough is a bit moist from all the ingredients in it so you may want to use a little flour on your hands to form the buns- do not use too much flour or the buns will not rise as easily Place buns on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with veggie oil.
  6. For best results bake the buns on a baking stone, covered with a piece of parchment and lightly sprayed with veggie oil Cover and place in a warm spot until the buns have doubled in size (I place them in the oven with the oven light on this gives a lovely warm, even heated, no breeze place where they can rise undisturbed).
  7. This step may take 1-2 hours dependinbg on your dough.
  8. Bake in 350F oven for apprx 20-25 minutes.
  9. Place on a rack to cool.
  10. They freeze well.
