    Whole Wheat Masala Bun

    Whole wheat masala Buns are perfect tea time snack. I often bake these mild spiced fresh buns for evening snack. This is my kid’s favorite bun. As it’s globally said not to use refined flour, I hardly bake anything out of all purpose flour. So baking it in a healthy way to feed family is always my priority. That to after my Food and Nutrition Diploma, my concentration always circles around clean eating habits. So trying to do a bit by sharing my recipes and promoting to eat healthy through my blog.

    Initially when I started baking,it was my dream,to bake good bread and buns . I have tried lot many times to bake a perfect bun , cookies and bread . Have no count on the amount of flour and butter that I have wasted to get those perfect buns and breads.After so many errors and trails ,lesson learnt was  good Yeast helps to bake better bun and bread.  If you want to try baking good bread then most key ingredient is your yeast,  good yeast = good bread.

    Now a days , I confidently bake whole wheat buns, breads and pav . I got good instant yeast from a online store and I'm a happy baker now 🙂 In Active Yeast ,a brand named black bird worked for me other than that none of the other yeast worked. But after finding instant yeast ,I don't prefer to use Active Yeast.   Main difference between active and instant yeast is that,active yeast should prove before using where as instant yeast can be used directly without waiting for yeast to prove.

    This is a easy bun recipe for beginners. Its fool proof recipe even if you are a beginner , still you can nail baking this provided Yeast is of good quality.
