Kitchen Equipment Required Mixing Bowls Measuring Cups and Spoons Stand Mixer with Dough Hook (optional) Rolling Pin Baking Tray Pastry Brush Saucepan Cooking Time Total estimated time: 3 hours (including rising time) Sweet Tahini Buns Recipe Ingredients 500g (4 cups) all-purpose flour 100g (1/2 cup) granulated sugar 7g (1 packet or 2 1/4 tsp) instant yeast 5g (1 tsp) salt 240ml (1 cup) milk, warm 60g (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, melted 2 large eggs, at room temperature 150g (1/2 cup) tahini 100g (1/2 cup) brown sugar, packed 5g (1 tsp) ground cinnamon 60ml (1/4 cup) honey 30g (2 tbsp) sesame seeds Instructions Step 1: Prepare the Dough In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, salt, and instant yeast. Mix well. Gradually add warm milk, melted butter, and eggs. Mix until a soft dough forms. If using a stand mixer, fit it with a dough hook and knead on medium speed for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. You can also knead by hand for about 15 minutes on a lightly floured surface. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1.5 hours or until doubled in size. Step 2: Prepare the Filling While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine tahini, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir occasionally until the sugar has melted and the mixture is smooth. Set aside to cool slightly. Step 3: Shape the Buns Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release air. Transfer it to a lightly floured surface and roll it out into a rectangle about 30x40cm (12×16 inches). Spread the tahini-sugar mixture evenly over the surface of the dough. Start rolling from the long side, tightly rolling the dough into a log. Using a sharp knife or a piece of dental floss, cut the log into 12 equal pieces. Place the buns cut side up on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Step 4: Second Rise and Bake Cover the buns with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let them rise for an additional 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Once the buns have risen, bake them in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Step 5: Glaze and Serve While the buns are baking, warm honey in a small saucepan over low heat. Once the buns are out of the oven, immediately brush them with the warm honey to give a beautiful shine. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top before serving. Allow to cool slightly before serving, though they are best enjoyed warm. Conclusion And there you have it! Sweet Tahini Buns that are sure to delight everyone with their rich, nutty sweetness. These buns are a testament to how simple ingredients can combine to create something truly special.
