Dietary Yogurt Buns
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Anyone can make these buns, adjusting the recipe to their taste or mood. Want them salty? Want them sweet? This recipe is universal! There's no need to weigh the ingredients—just add as much as you like. Shaping the buns is easy too: for round buns, roll out the dough and use a glass to cut out circles. Prefer square ones? No problem—just cut the dough into squares with a knife; they'll turn out like scones. Be creative, experiment, add any mix-ins you like. For example, today I added feta cheese, but you can easily substitute it with cheddar, Parmesan, bacon, or green onions. The beauty of these buns is that even a minimal set of ingredients—flour, salt, and yogurt—is enough to make them. Mix-ins, however, will enhance the flavor and add a delightful twist. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.

4. At this stage, add the cheese or other ingredients. Knead the dough by hand. It should be moderately dense and sticky; no more flour is needed. If it turns out too dry, add a couple of tablespoons of milk.

6. Shape the buns. Square ones are the quickest to make: simply transfer the dough onto a silicone mat or parchment paper with silicone. Roll out the dough easily with a rolling pin (not too thin!). Cut into squares. Sprinkle with coarse salt or Provence herbs.
