Cottage cheese buns
Description
Delicious baked goods for the whole family. Yeast dough becomes even more tender and airy when you add a little vegetable oil—it makes the dough elastic, soft, and glossy. Thanks to the cottage cheese, the buns rise slightly less than usual, but they turn out so moist and light that they simply melt in your mouth! Be sure to sift the flour several times—this way it will be better infused with air, making the baked goods fluffier. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
