INGREDIENTS

½ package dry yeast;

90 g (3 oz) white sugar;

2/3 cup warm milk;

1 lemon (zest);

1 orange (zest);

250 g (8.8 oz) all-purpose flour;
250 (8.8 oz) ’00’ flour;

2 eggs;

90 g (3 oz butter), cubbed;

1 tbsp honey.

METHOD

Add a pinch of sugar into a glass of warm milk and pour the yeast over it. Set aside for 10 minutes for the yeast to activate.
Combine both types of flour with lemon and orange zest and leftover sugar. Pour yeast solution, eggs and liquid honey in.
Knead the dough for 10 minutes and start adding cubbed room-temperature butter in 3 portions.
When all butter is incorporated, knead the dough for 5 minutes more or until soft and elastic.
Set aside for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Divide the dough into 9 large balls and 9 small balls for the decoration.
Using your thumb make an indent in the center of each ball of dough and place a small ball of dough on top. Cover with plastic and set aside for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile preheat your oven to 180C/350F.
Brush each bun with an egg yolk and bake for 20 minutes.
