Chestnut Flour Buns

Preparation:

  1. Making the dough:

    • In a bowl, mix the warm milk with the yeast. Let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes until a light foam forms on the surface.
    • In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flours, sugar, and salt. Make a well in the center.
    • Pour in the milk-yeast mixture, add the egg, and start kneading on low speed.
  2. Incorporating the butter:

    • Once the dough starts to form, gradually add the butter cubes.
    • Knead for 8 to 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  3. First rise:

    • Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with a clean cloth.
    • Let it rise in a warm place for 1.5 to 2 hours, until the dough doubles in size.
  4. Shaping:

    • Punch the dough down gently with your hands. Divide it into 8 equal portions.
    • Shape each portion into a ball and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
    • Cover with a cloth and let them rest for 30 to 40 minutes for a second rise.
  5. Egg wash and baking:

    • Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
    • Brush the buns gently with the beaten egg (add a drop of water if necessary).
    • Optionally sprinkle with seeds.
    • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the buns are golden brown.
  6. Finishing:

    • Let the buns cool on a rack before cutting them for your burgers or sandwiches.
