Recipe Description

Fluffy Japanese Milk Bread rolls are one of my favorite bread recipes to make and to eat! These little fluffy rolls are delicious when served warm from the oven. They are unbelievably soft and they smell absolutely amazing when baking. You will never need any other Japanese milk bread recipes once you’ve tried this one.

Start by making a smooth and elastic dough which springs back when you press it with your fingers. Divide the dough into even 12 pieces and shape each piece into a round ball. Sprinkle the tops with flour and bake in a preheated oven and enjoy warm.

To make Fluffy Japanese Milk Bread, you will need the following ingredients:

Superb. Hice el pan para un desayuno familiar, y todos estaban encantados. La textura es increíble, suave y ligera. Mi hermana no podía dejar de comer, y los niños querían más. Es fácil de hacer y el olor en la casa es maravilloso. Definitivamente se convertirá en una de mis recetas favoritas.
