Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Step 2

    In a large bowl, mix 2 cups flour, 1 tbsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt. Add 3/4 cup yogurt and stir until a soft dough forms.

  3. Step 3

    Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead gently 5-6 times until smooth. Divide into 4 equal pieces and shape each into a round bun.

  4. Step 4

    Place buns on the baking sheet. Brush tops with 1 tbsp milk and sprinkle with 2 tbsp sesame seeds.

  5. Step 5

    Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown and hollow-sounding when tapped. Cool slightly before serving.
