Adorable Bunny Buns (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Base Dough
01 -
1/4 teaspoon salt
02 -
1 cup (150g) self-raising flour
03 -
1 cup (270g) plain yogurt
04 -
Butter to grease the dish
→ Extras for Finishing Touch
05 -
Brush buns with melted butter
06 -
Draw faces on the buns with edible markers
# Instructions:
01 -
Get your oven warming up to 180°C (360°F). Toss yogurt, flour, and salt into a bowl and stir until everything comes together into a soft, sticky mixture. If it’s too gooey, sprinkle in some extra flour—one tablespoon at a time—until it’s workable.
02 -
Break the dough into 6 equal piles (roughly 70g each). From each, form a bigger ball (45g) for the bunny heads, and make two stubby little sausage-like shapes (12g each) for their ears.
03 -
Rub butter all over a large baking dish. Lay out the six big heads, spacing them evenly. Gently press two ear shapes onto the tops of each ball so they stick.
04 -
If you want extra flavor and shine, lightly paint the tops of your buns with some melted butter before baking.
05 -
Pop the tray into the oven for about 20 minutes, or until the buns turn golden and are cooked all the way through. Pull them out, let them cool just a little, and they’re ready to eat!
06 -
Eat while still warm for peak fluffiness. If you like, decorate the buns with bunny faces using an edible marker. Leftovers? Warm them up for 10 seconds in the microwave, and they’ll taste fresh again.
# Notes:
01 -
Don’t have self-raising flour? Mix 1 cup of plain flour with 1 teaspoon of baking powder instead.
02 -
Make the dough ahead of time! Keep it in the fridge for up to three days or freeze it for as long as four months.
