Buns
Description
The baked goods are easy and quick to make. My “Just Like Grandma’s” buns with a cottage cheese filling. They’re unusually soft, airy, fragrant, and delicious. If you already know yeast enriched dough, shaping these buns won’t be hard. For beginner cooks I give a detailed step-by-step recipe. Good luck. The bake is ready. Serve at the table.

Place the yeast in a bowl, add a tablespoon of sugar, and pour in warm milk. Let stand for 10–12 minutes. After that time, the yeast will activate.

After an hour to an hour and a half, the dough will rise noticeably in volume and will be ready to work with.

Step 7
I made two kinds of buns. Divide the dough roughly into two parts. Divide one part into balls. Roll each ball into an elongated flat round. Stir sugar to taste into the farmer cheese (tvorog) and combine. The filling for the buns is ready. Spoon a teaspoon of farmer cheese onto the edge of each round.

The second kind of buns. From the remaining dough, roll balls the same way. Roll each ball out into a circle and make three cuts on it.

Place a teaspoon of cottage cheese filling in the center of the circle.

Wrap the third section of the circle around the filling.
