Butter Bun with Chocolate Chips

31 May 2014.
This is not my first bread making. However, this is my first post in this blog on bread or bun. I posted this in The AirFryer Recipe Collection group in Facebook, as my maiden post in the group. Posted on 3 March 2014, however in the picture I wrote wrongly. Hahaha..very careless of me.

I got the recipe from Nasi Lemak Lover blog, using my air-fryer i bake on 160 degree Celcius for around 18 minutes.

Below is my adaptation of the recipe so that I fit into my air-fryer:

Gelatinised dough
100g bread flour
70ml hot boiling water


1. Place flour in a mixing bowl.
2. Add hot boiling water and mix with wooden spoon to form a rough dough.
3. Cover bowl with cling film and leave dough to cool in the fridge for at least 1 hour, and up to 48 hours.

 
To prepare Basic sweet bread dough

300g bread flour
100g plain flour
80g sugar
1 tbsp instant yeast
½ tsp salt
175ml cold milk
1 cold grade A egg
60g cold butter, cubed

1. Combine flours, sugar, yeast and salt together in a mixing bowl.
2. Tear the gelatinized dough into pieces and add to the bowl along with the eggs
3. Using a stand electric mixer, mix on low speed, adding cold milk gradually.
4. Mix until dough is well combined and leave the sides of bowl.
5. Add in the cold butter cubes and mix on medium speed until dough is smooth.
6. Note that this dough is quite sticky. As long as your dough has reach pass the windowpane test, then you may stop kneading.
7. Shape dough into a ball, leave to proof for 40mins or until doubled.

Filling.
Chocolate chips ( I use hershey semi sweet)

To prepare the baking pan (I use Philips original baking pan):
1. Cut 3 pcs of baking paper, the size should be larger than the pan.
2. Put 1 pc of the paper into the baking pan, and the other 2 pcs, into a temporarily pan or a plate.

To assemble bun and bake.
1. Divide and shape bread dough into a ball weighted 70g each.
2. Add around 20 to 25 pcs of choco chip filling and wrap inside the small dough ball.
3. Place dough ball on one of the temporarily pan. Arrange the bun so that 1 pc of baking paper can fit 5 buns.
4. After completed shaping 5 buns, cover it with a wet towel or a cling wrap and put inside the fridge.
5. Continue shaping another 5 buns, and put in to the baking pan. Cover it with a wet towel or a cling wrap, and do not need to refrigerate this. Just put it somewhere cool in your house.
6. Now, finish up shaping for the remaining dough, and put it into the temp pan. Cover it with a wet tower or a cling wrap, and put it somewhere cool in your house.
7. Now, Move the baking pan to a warm place at your house, and proof the bun for around 25 minutes.
8. After 25 minutes, apply egg wash on the bun, and sprinkle some sesame seed. I sprinkle some chia seed.
9. Pre heat the fryer for around 3 minutes, and bake the bun at 160 degree c, for around 15 to 18 minutes.
10. During baking the 1st batch of the bun, take out the buns that has been resting in the fridge, and put it somewhere warm in your house.
10. After baking, carefully remove the baking pan from the fryer, and invert the bun to be cooled.
11. Put in the 2nd batch of bun ( from the temp pan that was put away in a cool place), and bake.
12. Repeat the baking process for the final batch.
13. Enjoy!
