Ingredients:
12 gr. fresh yeast
50 gr. whole wheat flour
12. gr. ground cardamom
650 gr. wheat flour (it might be more. It depends on the flour you use). 10 gr. salt
3,5 dl lukewarm milk
60 gr. sugar
2 eggs
50 gr. cold butter, cut into small squares
Instructions:
- Mix the yeast with the milk.
- Add the sugar, cardamom, salt and eggs and mix well.
- Add first the whole wheat flour, then the wheat flour.
- Knead the dough with your hands or using a mixer. If you use a mixer, expect to mix on medium speed for about 6 min. Do the gluten test. If the dough is ready, add the butter and knead again. You may need to add a bit more flour.
- Leave the dough to rise for about one hour. I often leave my dough to rise outdoor.
- Divide the dough into approximately 15 pieces and form 15 equally sized buns.
- Place the buns in a tray covered with parchment paper or greased with melted butter. Leave 2-3 cm. between the buns.
- Cover the buns with a tea towel and leave them to raise for minimum 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 200C. Brush the buns with egg yolk and bake them for app. 15-20 min.
- Eat warm with cold butter or jam.
