Turkish BreakFast Buns

Good morning Steemians

I hope you had a great Easter holiday , I stayed home most of the holidays, as the weather in London was .............. :(

Today I will be making Lovely Turkish breakfast buns. They are very easy to make, and smell and taste exceptional

They could be made in any shape you like, could be a party snack as well

Ingredients

Wet ingredients

• 2 cups of warm milk
• 1 cup of vegetable oil
• 2 eggs (separate the egg white and egg yolk)
• 2 Table spoons of yeast

Dry Ingredients

• 6 cups of all purpose flour
• 4 Table spoons of granulated sugar
• 1/2 Tea spoon of salt
• Zest of 1 orange
• 1 table spoon of fennel optional)

It Begins

Instructions

• In a mixing bowl, add all the milk, oil and 2 egg whites

• Add the Sugar and Yeast to the above ingredients and mix well

• Add the rest of the Dry ingredients ( Flour, Salt, Orange Zest and Fennel) and mix well until you have a soft dough

• Transfer the Dough to a new bowl and cover it

• Wait for the dough to rise, it should double in size in around an hour, depending on your kitchen temperature ( the warmer your kitchen the faster it will rise )

• Put some flour on the kitchen table and place the dough on it.

• Start cutting the dough into small pieces around the size of an orange and flatten it out ( not too thin)

• Feel free to use any filling you like, you can use Nutella , Cream cheese or Jam

• Make sure you have pre-heated your oven to around 180 degrees, and start folding the dough with filling into a shape of your choice.

• Put the dough in a pan, brush with egg yolks and feel free to add sesame seeds on top, for an extra touch
• It would be good to wait for around 30 minutes before placing it in the over, so that the dough can fully develop

• Put the pan with the Dough, in the pre-heated oven for 25-30 minutes

I hope you enjoy this light hearted snack, it could seem a little challenging but believe me it is very straight forward, but as always if you have any questions you will find me on my telegram group below
