Sweet Buns | How to make fruit buns at home

Homemade sweet buns are soft and spongy tutti fruity studded buns. The smell and taste of freshly made homemade buns are amazing. These yummy buns will delight you when you take in your mouth. After my attempt of making homemade bread, I thought to try sweet buns and believe me it was perfect. These buns are so soft and fluffy. These delicious treats give amazing taste with butter or jam.

To make sweet buns, first proof the yeast by dissolving it in warm water. Let this stand for 10 minutes. Knead the flour using this yeast mixture. For soft bread knead the dough properly. It helps to develop the gluten in the dough this way. This is the only way to get soft loaf. The proof is important to allow the yeast and gluten to develop. You really have to try this.

Sweet buns

Ingredients:

2 cup Maida (white flour)
½ tsp. salt
2 tsp. sugar
2 tbsp. oil
1 tsp. yeast
½ cup milk
½ cup Tutti fruti

Instructions:

Proofing-

Dissolve yeast and sugar in ¾ cup warm water. Mix well until sugar and yeast are dissolved completely. Leave for 10 minutes until bubbles form on surface. It’s possible to kill yeast if you use too hot of water, so water should be lukewarm.


Kneading-

It is very important part to get soft bread. Sieve maida in a mixing bowl. Add salt and half amount of oil. Mix properly.
Pour yeast mixture into flour. Don’t be in hurry. Use your hand and start to knead the flour. Add milk in parts and knead until smooth and elastic. This procedure can be 8-10 minutes longer. If dough is sticky, apply remaining oil in parts and knead until smooth. Kneading dough allows gluten to form which enables dough to rise better, be lighter and fluffier. Place in a container and cover. Let rise in a warm place until doubled for 2-2.5 hours.


When the dough has risen, punch it down gently to release air that have developed.



Add tutti fruit and knead again for 1-2 minute.


Divide the dough into equal portions and shape them into buns.


Grease your pan with some oil. Keep the buns in pan and grease with milk. Let it rise for a few minutes or until doubled.


Baking-

Meanwhile, preheat the cooker. Add salt at the bottom, place a stand.


When it becomes hot, keep your pan. Close the lid and cook for 15 minutes on medium flame or until crust becomes golden brown.
Remove from cooker and let it cool for 15 minutes and then remove it from pan.
Serve and enjoy.

Tips:
