Ingredients
- 3 1/2 Cups 1 to 1 Bread Flour
- 2 Tbsp Psyllium husk powder
- 1 Tbsp Sugar
- 1 3/4 Tsp Baking Powder
- 2 + 1 1/2 Tbsp + Tsp Fast acting dry yeast
- 1 Tsp Kosher salt
- 1 1/4 Cup Low fat milk
- 3/4 Cup Butter softened
- 2 Whole Large eggs
Instructions
- Mix the dry ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer using a paddle attachment. With the mixer running on low, slowly add the milk, followed by the eggs and the butter.
- Turn the mixer up to high and mix for about 5 minutes. The dough will be a bit moist and not firm like bread dough. Scrape the dough out of the bowl on to a surface and form into a rough ball.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in a warm, dry area for at least 2 hours, or until at least doubled in size. Next, chill for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight.
- Divide the dough in half and put one half to the side while working with the other half. Divide the dough into baseball sized portions and roll each portion into a tight ball. Place on parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart. Flatten each bun to about 1/2-inch thick so they rise up and not out. Cover with a towel.
- With the remaining dough, roll it out to a rectangle that's about 1/2-inch thick. Cut into 6 portions. Place each piece on its side and roll out to about 6" long. Place on a baking sheet and press down lightly until they are about one-inch thick.
- Now cover each of the buns with plastic wrap loosely and allow to rise until about doubled in size. It should look like a bun. This can take anywhere from a half an hour to an hour and a half.
- When the buns have finished their rise, preheat oven to 375° F. Make an egg wash by whisking one egg (can be an egg white) with a splash of water. Brush each bun until covered.
- Bake rolls for between 15-20 minutes. You are looking for a golden brown exterior and they should be soft but firm. Allow to cool before slicing.
- Serve and enjoy!
