How To Make Nigerian Buns, My First Attempt

How to make Nigerian buns, my first attempt. This weekend, I tried to reproduce Ayaoba’s buns and this yummy buns are what I got at the end. I’m on a journey of losing 10kg so, I tried my best to keep
from finishing one.
I only bit once. The kids and hubby liked it and asked for more. I guess I will go for a second attempt. My second attempt is going to look better I promise. Don’t let the whitish look deceive you please, these buns tasted very good.
I know some of my mistakes now and will correct them when I make again.
 
Ayaoba’s recipe was very easy to follow cos of the step by step pics. My flour is not self raising so I added a pinch of baking powder.

 Ingredients:

  • 3 cups flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoonfuls sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg powder
  • 5tablesppoonful milk
  • water
  • Soya oil

  1. I think you should work more on your moulding, to get a very fine spherical shape. The moulding looks a bit rough here.

  4. The whitish look is beause she must have rubbed flour in her hand while moulding the dough and did not wipe the balls before frying.
    Next time may be you wipe or bush some oil on the moulded dough before frying. #FromAnotherLearner

  10. Buns is hard at the surface
    Puff puff is soft

    Buns contains no yeast hence the hardness
    Puff puff contains yeast, which causes the dough to rise hence the puffiness.
