Buns with honey and green tea

Honey and green tea rolls – a simple and delicious recipe, perfect for a savory breakfast or a sweet snack. These rolls are fluffy, aromatic, and full of flavor, and the combination of honey and green tea gives them a distinct note. Start with a dash of patience and dedication, and the result will meet your expectations. Preparation time: 15 minutes Baking time: 25-30 minutes Total time: 40-45 minutes Number of servings: 12 rolls Ingredients: - 250 ml warm milk (about 37°C) - 100 g honey (preferably multifloral honey for a more complex taste) - 50 ml sunflower oil or olive oil - 1/2 teaspoon salt - 25 g fresh yeast or 7 g dry yeast - 500 g white wheat flour (type 650) - 1 bag of green tea (or 2 tablespoons of green tea leaves) Step by step: 1. Start by preparing the green tea. Boil 250 ml of water and add the tea bag. Let it steep for 5-7 minutes, then allow it to cool slightly. A high-quality green tea will add a more intense flavor to the rolls. 2. In a large bowl, pour in the warm milk, add the honey and oil. Whisk until the honey is completely dissolved. This is the liquid base of the dough, which will provide moisture and sweetness. 3. Sprinkle in the salt and add the yeast. If using fresh yeast, make sure it dissolves well in the mixture. Let it sit for 5 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy – this step is crucial to activate the yeast. 4. Gradually incorporate the flour, mixing with a spatula or your hands until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl. Finally, add the infused green tea and mix well. If you want a finer texture, you can sift the flour to remove impurities. 5. Knead the dough for 10 minutes on a lightly floured surface until it becomes elastic and smooth. If the dough is too sticky, add a little extra flour, but be careful not to overdo it. 6. Place the dough in a bowl greased with a little oil, cover it with a damp towel, and let it rise in a warm place, away from drafts, for 1 hour or until it doubles in size. 7. After the dough has risen, turn it out onto a work surface and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape the rolls by rolling them between your palms to achieve an even shape. Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. 8. Cover the rolls with a towel and let them rise again for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 180°C. 9. Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden and they sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. Allow them to cool on a wire rack. Practical tips: - You can add some sesame or poppy seeds to the dough for extra texture and flavor. - These rolls are delicious and simple, but you can turn them into sandwiches with various fillings, such as cheese, meat, or vegetables. - Serve them warm, alongside butter or jam, or use them as a base for a breakfast with eggs and avocado. Personal notes: These honey and green tea rolls are not just a simple snack, but also a wonderful way to start the day with energy. The delicate aroma of green tea perfectly blends with the sweetness of honey, creating a quick dessert that will impress any guests. Experiment with different variations and adapt the recipe to your taste!
Preparation
In a bowl, I put warm milk, honey, oil, salt, and yeast. I mixed them with a whisk, then began to gradually pour in the flour. Once I could no longer mix with the whisk, I kneaded a soft and non-sticky dough by hand, into which I added two tablespoons of green tea powder. I placed the dough on a lightly floured surface and kneaded for a few minutes until all the green tea was evenly incorporated. I have a bowl with a little oil and placed the dough to rise for an hour. Then, I shaped small rolls in my palm, placed them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, and let them rest for another half hour. Meanwhile, I preheated the oven and placed the risen rolls on low heat. While hot, I drizzled a little honey on each one, then spread it well with a brush over the entire surface and sprinkled coconut flakes. Enjoy your meal!
