Pumpkin Buns



(Makes 9 buns)
Ingredients:
310g bread flour
30g brown sugar
2g salt
5g instant dried yeast
125g mashed pumpkin
55g yogurt
1 egg
40g butter, softened
1 tbsp white/black chia seeds
2 tbsp pumpkin seeds

  • Combine flour, sugar and salt together.  Add in yeast and stir to combine.  Add in mashed pumpkin, yogurt and egg.  Using the dough hook, knead until it forms a slightly sticky dough.
  • Add in butter and knead until dough is smooth and elastic.  Incorporate chia seeds and pumpkin seeds.
  • Shape dough into a ball and place in a lightly greased bowl and cover with cling wrap.  Allow to rise until double in size.
  • Punch down the dough to expel trapped air.  Divide dough into 9 equal portions.  Rest for 10 minutes.
  • Flatten a piece of dough and roll up like swiss roll. Repeat with the rest of the dough. Place the rolls slightly apart on a greased baking tray.  Cover and proof until almost double in size.
  • Preheat oven to 185°C.
  • Brush buns with egg wash and grate tasty cheese over the buns and bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown.

  4. Nice buns. The egg that you used, is it a large egg? After adding in the butter, do you knead the dough by hand or continue kneading with the dough hook?

    1. Hi Cheah, the egg I used was 57g (with shell). I let the dough hook did all the kneading.

    1. Hi Jeannie I didn't really time it but I kneaded until it passed the window pane test.
