🛒 Ingredients (in order)
- 250 ml warm milk 🥛
- 15 g sugar
- 7 g instant yeast
- 7 g salt 🧂
- 350 g all-purpose flour
- 20 g poppy seeds
- 20 g soft butter 🧈
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Activate the Magic
In a large bowl, pour the warm milk, then add sugar and yeast. Give it a gentle mix and let it sit for 5–10 minutes until slightly foamy. This step wakes up the yeast and ensures soft, airy bread.
2. Build the Dough
Add the salt and gradually mix in the flour. Stir until a soft dough starts to form.
3. Add Flavor & Softness
Mix in the poppy seeds and soft butter. Knead the dough for about 8–10 minutes until smooth, elastic, and slightly tacky. This is what gives you that perfect fluffy texture!
4. First Rise
Cover the dough and let it rest in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
5. Shape the Rolls
Divide the dough into equal portions and shape into small balls or oval rolls. Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
6. Second Rise
Cover again and let them rise for another 20–30 minutes. This step makes them extra soft and light.
7. Bake to Golden Perfection
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 20–25 minutes, or until beautifully golden on top.
✨ Pro Tips
- Brush the tops with a little milk or melted butter before baking for that gorgeous shine
- Sprinkle extra poppy seeds on top for a bakery-style finish
- Don’t overbake—keep them soft and fluffy!
