    • In a large bowl, combine flour, milk powder, salt, and sugar.

  3. Add Wet Ingredients:

    • Add the eggs, activated yeast, and start mixing.

    • Slowly add water to bring the dough together (you may need around 450–500 ml depending on flour absorption).

  4. Knead:

    • Knead the dough for 10–12 minutes until smooth and elastic.

    • Add the softened butter gradually and knead it fully into the dough.

  5. First Proof:

    • Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1–1.5 hours until doubled in size.

  6. Shape:

    • Punch the dough down and divide/shape as needed (e.g., rolls, loaves, buns).

  7. Second Proof:

    • Let shaped dough rest again for 30–45 minutes.

  8. Bake:

    • Preheat oven to 180–200°C.

    • Brush with egg wash if desired.

    • Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.

 

🧑‍🍳 Notes:

  • This is an enriched dough due to the addition of milk powder, sugar, eggs, and butter.

  • You can use this base for soft rolls, sandwich buns, or even sweet bread variations by adjusting sugar.
