Van Bake off Burger buns

Van Bake off Burger buns

This recipe is a winning star baker recipe for Van Bake Off 2020.
I organized myself in order to have freshly baked buns for lunch.

I started at 2.30 pm the day before in order to use less yeast and make these buns easier to digest. You can double the amount of yeast and start early in the morning. It is up to you. It all depends on whether or not you have access to a fridge for an overnight rest.

This is a fun and easy treat you can eat for a breakfast or as a dessert. And its super healthy, with no added sweetener. We used to buy this

CREAMY PEPPER SAUCE WITH MUSHROOMS

goes well with with a meaty dish

The key to getting the most “pepperiness” from your peppercorn sauce is to toast the pepper gently with the mushrooms and garlic before adding the cream. Fresh thyme, bay and a squeeze of lemon add all the right flavours and you’re done.
