Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, instant yeast, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
-
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Stir the ingredients together to form a soft dough. If the dough is too sticky, you can add a little more flour.
-
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
-
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
-
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and knead in the diced apples, sultanas, and ground cinnamon until evenly distributed.
-
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and shape them into buns. Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each bun for rising.
-
Cover the buns with a kitchen towel and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes.
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Bake the buns for 20-25 minutes until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
-
Remove the buns from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
