- 3g Salt ½ tsp
- 30g Caster sugar

MOLD
Muffin pan (12pc / Silicon muffin mold)
PREPARATION
- Mix Flour, Yeast, milk powder, sugar, salt and ice water (half)– for a quick dough formation.
- Turn on the mixer and knead the dough in gear 2, at this time you can observe the state of the dough before adding the rest of the water.
- Knead until dough is rough and firm. Usually with a mixer it will take about 3-5 minutes, while it will take 10-15 minutes with hand.**
- Add in soften unsalted butter to the dough.
- Continue kneading until dough become smooth and non sticky. You can check with the windowpane method. This will take about 5 minutes with mixer and 10-15 minutes using hand.
- Oil a bowl and put the dough in, cover with cling wrap and start fermentation process normal room temperature for 1-2 hours / until double in size. ( if you own an oven that can do fermentation set temperature at 40 Celsius for 30 minutes).
- Once done, punch out air from the dough, sprinkle some flour on the work surface ( to avoid sticking), transfer flour to working surface.
- Then use a rolling pin to roll out the dough into rectangular piece about 30x 50cm.
- Spread a thin layer of peanut butter evenly on top of the dough sheet.
- Fold the dough sheet twice, and roll it out a little wider ( tiny bit only!).
- Divide into 12 parts even size.
- Take one of the divided portion, but into 3 (leaving the tip section uncut- it will look like you have created 3 strip out of 1 with the upper potion attached).
- Then braid it like how you would braid your hair!
- When you are done, pinch the end of the braid and flip it over and roll it up.
- Put in the muffin pan (make sure you oil your muffin pan before that).
- Cover with cling wrap and let it rise for another 1 hour/ double in size.
- After fermentation, brush milk on the surface.
- Bake at preheated oven at 180°C for 18 minutes.
TIPS
**If the dough is too sticky to knead with hand at step 3, put dough in refrigerator for 20-30minutes before kneading.
