Pizza buns were one of the first bread recipes I ever made, I decided to remake these with some adjustment to make them extra fluffy and delicious.
For the filling I went with ham and cheese but you can choose pretty much anything you like, even Nutella or a sweet and savoury combo.
Here are the ingredients you will need (makes 8):
- 300g strong bread flour
- 5g yeast
- 1 tsp salt
- 200ml lukewarm warm water
Filling:
- Tomato puree
- Ham
- Mozarella cheese
Method:
- Mix the flour, yeast and salt. Add the water and mix
- Knead the dough until soft and bouncy
- Cover and leave to rest in a warm dry place for around 3 hours
- Once the dough has risen, divide into 8 portions
- Using a rolling pin. flatten the dough, add some tomato purée, ham and cheese, fold the edges inwards to seal
- Air fry them at 180c for 20-25 minutes, remove them half way and add some extra cheese on top of you like.
- Brush some olive oil mixed with garlic and herbs and enjoy!
