Lenten buns
Description
Vegan buns are very easy to make. Instead of fresh yeast you can use dry yeast. Add it directly to the flour. You will need 7–8 grams of such yeast. If you have not dealt with yeast dough before, the recipe provides a description of each step. Vegan buns are no worse than rich buns. They are very hard to distinguish. The homemade pastry turns out fluffy, soft, tasty, crunchy on the outside and soft inside. Serve warm or cooled. Perfect with tea.
