I tried many different recipes and methods over the years to make bread that taste good, easy to make, and enough to feed my family breakfast for a few days.
After the kneading, I let the dough proof inside the breadmaker for an hour or so. If using kitchen aid then cover the dough with kitchen towel and let it proof until it doubles in size.
Divide the dough into about 55 grams small buns then start shaping and filling each one with any filling you like.
Then let them proof the second time and bake in the oven for 15 to 18 minutes. You can make any bread you want with this basic dough from banana chocolate buns,
sausage buns,
