7 g instant dry yeast
50 g granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
250 ml warm milk
2 large eggs
60 g melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Powdered sugar for dusting
Method
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes until the yeast becomes foamy.
Add the eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
Gradually add the flour and salt while stirring until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough for 8 to 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
Punch down the dough and divide it into small equal pieces. Arrange them closely together in the prepared pan.
Cover and let the dough rise again for 30 to 40 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the top is beautifully golden brown.
