Cute Bunny Bread
1.
Ingredients: High-gluten flour: 210g, milk: 98g, fine sugar: 30g, unsalted butter: 30g, egg liquid (for kneading): 35g, yeast: 3g, salt: 2g, egg liquid (for brushing): Right amount, food coloring (for decoration): a little
2.
Put the ingredients except butter into the bread bucket, the order is to put the liquid ingredients first.
3.
Pour the flour again. Put yeast and salt in the flour diagonally. The purpose of this is to prevent the salt from coming into direct contact with the yeast and destroy the activity of the yeast. After all the ingredients are put in, start a kneading process. My bread maker has a dough mixing program set to 20 minutes.
4.
After 20 minutes, pour the butter that has melted at room temperature and continue to start a kneading program.
5.
After the program is over, take out the dough. Cover the dough with a clean damp cloth and let it sit for a few minutes. Take it out again, and you will easily pull out the film.
6.
Round the dough and place it in a container for fermentation.
7.
Put a pot of hot water in the lower layer of the oven, and put the dough on the middle-layer baking net. The purpose of this is to keep moist and promote fermentation.
8.
It took me 50 minutes to ferment this piece of noodles. Fermentation time is not static, it will vary with the season temperature. But only by observing the state of the dough, you can grasp the main points, when the dough is 2 to 2.5 times the original. We dip a little flour on our fingers and poke on the dough. When the dough does not shrink or collapse, it proves that it is just right. If the shrinkage certificate is not issued enough, if the collapse certificate has been issued.
9.
After the fermented dough is exhausted, it is divided into nine equal parts.
10.
Eight of them are used as rabbits and one is used as head flowers. Take one portion and cut off about one-fifth of it to make the bunny's ears, and the rest to make the bunny's face.
11.
Round the dough separately.
12.
Rub the shape of the two ears.
13.
Assemble the ears and face.
14.
All the bread dough is made, and the second fermentation is carried out at room temperature. Cover the surface with plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out.
15.
We will dye the remaining raw dough with food coloring while waiting for the second shot. Divide the pink dough into four equal parts to make eight flower heads.
16.
Take one part and divide it into five parts. Press into small round cakes respectively. Leave a space and overlap each other. Use chopsticks to press in the center and apply a little pressure to ensure that the dough pieces can stick together.
17.
Roll up from one end and cut with a knife from the indentation in the center.
18.
Two beautiful hairs are ready. The flowers are also subjected to secondary fermentation.
19.
When the bread dough is secondarily fermented to 1.5-2 times the original size, preheat the oven to 170 degrees. Brush egg liquid on the surface of the blank.
20.
Bake at 170 degrees in the middle of the oven for 18 minutes.
21.
Brush the surface of the second fermented flowers with egg liquid and put them in the oven for baking. The middle level is 170 degrees for 10 minutes. Please increase or decrease the specific time according to the size of the flowers, subject to the smell of bread. The reason why the flowers are roasted individually instead of being assembled on the bunny is to prevent the flowers from being colored for a long time. If you find it troublesome and you don’t need to make head flowers, this formula can make 9 little rabbits.
22.
Use food coloring pens to draw the facial features of the bunny. If you don't have a coloring pen, you can also use melted chocolate to draw. Put flowers on the bunny. The method of sticking with honey can fix the head flower on the bunny, but it will fall off after a long time. If you are looking for perfection, you can use a toothpick to fix it, but you must remove the toothpick before eating.
23.
The little white rabbit jumped to the bakery and asked: "Boss, do you have a hundred buns?"
Boss: "Ah, I'm so sorry, there are not so many"
"That's it..." The little white rabbit walked away dejectedly.
The next day, the little white rabbit jumped to the bakery, "Boss, do you have a hundred buns?"
Boss: "I'm sorry, I still don't have one"
"That's it..." The little white rabbit walked away frustrated again.
On the third day, the little white rabbit jumped to the bakery, "Boss, do you have a hundred buns?"
The boss said happily: "Yes, yes, today we have a hundred buns!!"
The little white rabbit took out the money: "Great, I'll buy two!"
Tips:
1. Fermentation time varies with the season. When the dough has grown to 2-2.5 times its original size. We dip a little flour on our fingers and poke on the dough. When the dough does not shrink or collapse, it proves that it is just right. If the shrinkage certificate is not issued enough, if the collapse certificate has been issued.
2. The baking time and temperature should be increased or decreased according to your own oven and the quantity of toasted bread.
3. It is best to use a fine-bristle brush when brushing the surface egg liquid, so that the brushed egg liquid is even and the color is beautiful.
4. The baking time and oven temperature in this side are not covered with tin foil, and the color is just right. If you find that the color of the bread surface has reached the color you want during the baking process and is not mature, please cover with tin foil To prevent the color from being too dark and affecting the appearance.
