Pillow soft floury white baps, great oven spring. Try them and you'll never go back to shop bought.
Ingredients
500gms T55 white flour
35gms unsalted butter diced
35gms caster sugar
10gms salt
7gm good quality dried active yeast
300mls of warm water - temp between 32c and 36c
Method
Place salt at bottom of mixing bowl, put flour then butter, yeast and sugar ontop. Add 3/4 of water. Mix with dough hook on medium or by hand and slowly add remainder of water. Mix for 6 -7 mins until dough is smooth and glossy. Place in lightly oiled bowl and cover, leave to prove until doubled in volume. Turn dough out onto floured surface and cut into 12. Shape into dough balls and then lightly roll into thick rounds, half bap size. Place 6 rounds to a baking tray leaving plenty of space for rise. Place trays into proving bag for 55mins or until doubled in size. Set oven to gas 7. Remove baps from proving bag. Sprinkle baps lightly with flour and bake in middle of pre-heated oven for 9-11 minutes, turn tray halfway through baking for even colouring. Cool then enjoy!

Really enjoyed these, wondering can you make 6 larger baps and how long would you bake for in that case ?
Mrs Marjory Simpson 07 August 2021
ReplyThank you for your lovely feedback, i'm delighted that you enjoyed them. Yes, you can easily make 6 large baps from exactly the same quantity of dough or even 2 white loaves (I use 2 x 1lb loaf tins and just split the recipe) I'd lower the oven temp to gas 5-6 for the larger rolls and bake them for 4-5 minutes longer. If the rolls are darkening too quickly lay a sheet of tinfoil over them. Gas 5 for the 2 white loaves, for 20 to 25 mins. Pop the loaves out of the tins near the end of baking to colour the bases of the loaves.You can also add two tablespoons of milk powder at the start of mixing the dough - exactly the same dough quantity - to make 14 x finger rolls for hot dogs, but you'll need a hot dog bun pan. Hope all this helps. Happy baking!
