Have you ever had occasions when you are left with a few slices of ham and/or back bacon and the portion is not enough to cook a dish or make sufficient sandwiches? Here is an easy way to make use of the leftovers - bake ham and bacon buns.
When I baked the ham and bacon buns that you see in this post, I lightly toasted them the next day and spread some butter/margarine on them. Ooh... yummy!
INGREDIENTS1/4 cup butter (softened)
1/2 cup warm milk
1 egg (lightly beaten)
1/8 cup fine sugar
3/4 tsp fine salt
2 cups bread flour
1 1/4 tsp instant dry yeast
2 slices ham
2 slices back bacon
METHOD1. Cut the ham and bacon into large pieces. Set aside.
2. Place all the ingredients (except the bread flour, yeast, ham and bacon) in the bucket of the breadmaker machine.
3. Add the bread flour, making sure that the wet ingredients are totally covered.
4. Add the yeast.
5. Place the bucket in the breadmaker machine and set to "dough" cycle. Start the cycle.
6. Ten minutes into the cycle, add the ham and bacon without stopping the cycle. Let the cycle continue.
7. When the cycle has been completed, turn the dough onto a floured board. Using floured hands, knead the dough 5 times and then separate the dough into portions of desired size.
8. Place each portion on a baking tray that has been lined with baking paper. Let there be sufficient space between each portion as the dough will continue to increase in size.
9. Cover the baking tray with a dry cloth and leave for 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
10. Bake in an oven preheated to 185 degrees celsius for 20 minutes.
