Main ingredient: all-purpose flour

Servings:12quantities adjust to match

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp instant yeast
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup plain yogurt (curd)
  • 1/2 cup warm milk, plus more if needed
  • 2 tsp vanilla essence, divided (1 tsp for the dough, 1 tsp for the icing)
  • 1 1/2 cups icing sugar
  • 2 to 3 Tbsp milk, for the icing
  • A few drops pink food colouring

Method

  1. Combine the flour, sugar, salt and yeast in a large bowl.
  2. Stir in the melted butter, yogurt, warm milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla to form a soft dough, adding a spoonful more milk if it feels dry.
  3. Knead for 8 to 10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Cover and leave in a warm place for about 1 hour, until doubled.
  4. Divide the dough into 10 to 12 equal pieces and shape each into a smooth round bun. Place on a lined baking tray, cover, and proof for 30 minutes.
  5. Heat the oven to 350°F. Bake the buns for 18 to 22 minutes, until risen and lightly golden. Cool on a rack.
  6. Whisk the icing sugar with the milk, remaining vanilla and pink colouring to make a thick, spreadable pink icing.
  7. Dip the top of each cooled bun in the icing, turn upright, and leave for 20 to 30 minutes for the icing to set before serving.
