Sweet buns into white bread ^.^

I love this loaf of bread though it was a plain bread. The "fluffiness" was amazing!

I added little bit more sugar as my 83year-old grandma-in-law would love to eat it "nakedly".

This was baked upon request from my falling-sick daughter who would love to apply a layer of nutella!

Original recipe from HHB. Yes it was a sweet buns recipe. At first I thought it was a loaf/white bread (when I wanted to update my blog), but after checking out with my maid (she helps to prepare ingredient), she confirmed that the recipe requires 125ml milk and I've told her that in order to have 125ml milk, she had to add 3T milk powder to 120-125ml water.

Ingredients:
- 125g milk (or 3T milk powder + 125ml water)
- 1 egg
- 150g bread flour
- 150g cake flour
- 3g salt
- 60g caster sugar
- 5g active dry yeast
- 50g butter
- (1 egg, beaten, for glazing)

I was still scratching my head while typing this. Guess I will try this out again to clear my own doubt!

Raisin Loaf

This would be my regular raisin loaf! My elder son can finish 2 slices at one go! It was very soft and taste nice, not too sweet for a raisin loaf ^.^ weeee..... happy me!

I just let my newly bought breadmaker (BM256) to do the job!

I've found this recipe from HHB but originally from MARS. Thank you both so much as my boy loves this!

Ingredients:
- 168g water (56%)
- 300g bread flour (100%)
- 18g milk powder (6%)
- 5g instant yeast (1.5%)
- 5g salt
- 45g sugar (15%) (I used 25%)
- 24g butter (8%)
- some raisins (optional)

1st Mocha Loaf

Believe me, the texture was super fluffy and soft! Even till the next day ^.^ Unfortunately, kid don't like it because it doesn't taste sweet but a little coffee-bitter :P


Will try to increase the sugar so that it would be sweet mocha loaf (not sure it will affect the texture by increasing the sugar... will update right after I tried it out).

Here's a slice of the mocha loaf and recipe from HHB:

Raisin Sweet Buns

Delicious raisin sweet buns... though it turned dense and hard the next day, but it can be easily finished the 2nd day ^.^

See my youngest one.... cute de nei!


Recipe from HHB - Sweet Buns which I added raisin for it ^.^ Thanks HHB!

Pork Floss Bun

With the help of my daughter, we managed to produce this:



Look nice right? Yes, indeed. Because it was from a famous pork floss store :P As for the bread, it turned a bit hard the next day. Grandma-in-law suggested to steam it in order to avoid getting a hard texture and she was right!

My husband and daughter love to eat pork floss bun and they keep asking for it but out-of-stock as this was my 1st attempt, didn't make much of it ^.^

After 2 attempts playing with bread... I decided and bought a breadmaker machine!! To be continued in my next blog ^.^
