Ingredients

  • ½ cup warm water aim for 107-110° F
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons quick rise active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon honey or sugar
  • ¼ cup butter
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 eggs divided
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 ⅓ cups all purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons sesame seeds white

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, preferably that of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, stir yeast and honey into warm water. Let sit for 5-10 minutes or until bubbles form and mixture starts to foam. This tells you that the yeast is alive and kicking.

  • Next, add salt and 2 cups of the flour and knead until flour has been incorporated. With mixer on low, add in remaining flour bit by bit to get the consistency you want: slightly tacky, but when you touch it, it doesn't stick to your hands.
