Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.

Step 6

Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air.

Place the buns on a greased baking tray or a tray lined with parchment paper, leaving enough space between each bun.

Step 10

Cover the buns loosely with a kitchen towel and let them rise for an additional 20 minutes.

Step 11

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 12

Melt the butter and brush it over the tops of the buns for added flavor and a golden finish.
