Bread made from cornmeal without wheat flour. Round buns with cornmeal

Unsweetened buns from yeast dough.

Simple homemade rolls or loaf instead of bread.

Buns with wholemeal flour 12%.

Buns for healthy eating on dry yeast.

Yeast dough in vegetable oil and sour cream.

I still love wholemeal cornmeal. That's why I often bake buns from wheat flour top grade with the addition of corn flour. The best option. In my opinion, this is even better than adding bran to flour.

Despite the fact that they contain only 12% wholemeal flour, they are healthier, and the taste differs little from the usual premium ones. They are somewhat drier than wheat and have a crisper bottom.

The dough is less sticky and easier to work with. Cutting the dough does not differ from ordinary round buns.

I use little yeast, no more than 2 ml, for sure.

I baked not only buns from this dough, but also loaves, but it will be more difficult for beginners with them. May crack, for example, due to insufficient proofing.

By the way, I measure products accurately using. And I advise everyone. Recipe for success.

Any vegetable oil will do. I often use unrefined, it is healthier. Perhaps the taste will remain unrefined oil It really depends on the specific oil.

There are two ways to add cornmeal to the dough:

1. Add it to the wheat flour and mix everything well, otherwise it will be with yellow islands in the section.

2. Add corn flour to the liquid ingredients, wait half an hour until it swells, then add wheat flour with yeast. So in the recipe below.

With the second method, the buns are a little more tender.

Cooking:

1. Put sour cream in a bowl (I have it for 1.5 liters), vegetable oil, salt, sugar. Pour half the water, add cornmeal, mix. Add the rest of the water, mix. Let stand 25-30 minutes on the table so that the cornmeal absorbs moisture.

2. Mix the yeast into the flour. Read how to accurately measure yeast.
You can increase the amount of yeast, the dough will rise faster. But I don’t like more than half a teaspoon (2.5 ml), it affects the taste. But this is a matter of taste.

Add all wheat flour to the liquid mass, it is more convenient in portions, knead a thick dough with a fork, blind in one piece. Please note: the dough almost does not stick to the edges of the bowl. Cover the bowl with cling film and leave on the counter for 15-20 minutes.

3. Lightly flour the table, lay out the dough. Knead with your hands, mold a bun. Knead for about 2 minutes. For such a small test volume, this is quite enough. Place the gingerbread man in a bowl, cover with cling film, put in a warm place to rise.

From my experience: I had a case when I combined all the products, mixed with a fork, covered with a film to knead the dough after 15 minutes and forgot that I didn’t knead the dough on the table. I remembered after 3 hours, it rose in mounds, it seemed to me heterogeneous. She put it on the table, kneaded it, let it rest for 10 minutes, cut it into buns. Normal buns were baked as usual. This is how it happens.

But I still knead the dough every time. :)

4. The dough has risen after 3 hours.

near me gas stove where the dough stood, the temperature was 24ºC. At a temperature of 26-27ºC, it rises in about 2 hours.

5. Put the dough on a lightly floured table.

6. Crush the dough into a cake, cut into 4 parts, round the pieces. Keep them under the film for 5-10 minutes.

I weigh the pieces, then cut or add weights so that the weight of the buns is the same.

7. Blind round buns. How to sculpt. Lay the buns on a greased baking sheet.

8. Flatten the buns into a flat cake with the palm of your hand. Cover with a towel or cling film to keep from drying out. I cover the tray like a lid. Put for 1-1.5 hours in a warm place.

9. After an hour and a half, the buns will swell, increase in size, you can bake.

We bake buns at a temperature of 180-200ºC for about 15-20 minutes.

10. Cool the finished buns on a wire rack. Photo at the beginning of the article.

Fresh buns are very tender and difficult to cut with a knife. I, like my mother, heat the knife over the flame of a gas burner. Then everything cuts straight. I used to be afraid to give this advice so that someone would not get burned. And recently I read that you can heat the knife in hot water, then wipe well, there will be the same result. So cut the buns with a hot knife in a safe way.

If a loaf is more suitable for you as bread than buns, you can bake a loaf from this dough: roll the whole dough into an oval cake (roll with a rolling pin on both sides), about 1 cm thick, roll up, pinch the ends. The loaf is baked for about 30-35 minutes.

If you make a longitudinal incision before baking, you get such a loaf.

Very easy to prepare buns, the dough for them is made without a steamer. We just have to leave ready dough for proofing, and after proofing it is already possible to form these delicious rolls with a pale yellow crumb. Their taste is so unusual from the addition of cornmeal and so good that you want to bake them again and again.

I also want to say right away that these buns are not sweet pastries, so they can be eaten on their own and used for sandwiches with different spreads.

So, for baking corn buns, you need to take all the products on the list.

Pour the cornmeal, sugar into the bowl for the dough and mix them.

Also add salt.

Pour in the pre-melted butter.

Pour dry yeast with warm water, stir until dissolved.

We heat the milk, but without bringing it to a boil, and pour it into a mixture of flour and butter. Mix everything until the ingredients are combined.

After mixing, cool the mixture and then pour in the dissolved yeast.

Next, sift in half of the flour.

We introduce a chicken egg.

After combining the eggs and dough, we introduce the rest of the flour, leaving a little to dust.

We knead the dough so that it turns out to be homogeneous and elastic, if I can say so about the dough with cornmeal.

Then it is better to transfer the dough to a larger bowl so that it has more space, because during proofing it will increase in size. Grease the bowl a small amount vegetable oil. Cover the bowl with a slightly damp cloth and leave to proof for 2-3 hours.

This is what the dough should look like after proofing.

We spread it on a table or board, sprinkled with flour, and crush it.

We form round buns and leave them on the table or board for proofing under a towel or napkin for 30-40 minutes. During this time, preheat the oven to 180 degrees.

Transfer some of the buns to a baking sheet with parchment or a non-stick mat. We make cross-shaped cuts on each bun.

Lubricate the buns with melted butter and sprinkle with a mixture of cornmeal and salt. We immediately send the baking sheet with the blanks to the oven.

In my oven, these buns are baked in 15 minutes. We take out ready-made corn buns from the oven. We do the same with the second batch of blanks.

Remove the buns from the pan and let them cool.

Corn buns are very good for breakfast with butter, caviar, honey, jam or any kind of jam, as well as pâtés or vegetable caviar. Enjoy your meal!

Yeast dough for Italian buns is universal, it is suitable for any savory pastries: pies, pies,. AT original recipe, according to which I made dough for buns, there is no sugar at all and only half a teaspoon of salt. For my taste, Italian buns would be fresh. So I added sugar to the recipe and put another teaspoon of salt. But this does not mean that you should follow my example, be guided by your taste.
Cornmeal is added to the dough, it makes the structure of the buns more loose, porous and the baked goods are not so high in calories. If there is no flour, it can be replaced corn grits fine grind.

Ingredients:

- wheat flour - 350 gr;
- corn flour - 2 tbsp. l. with a slide in the dough + flour for sprinkling;
- sugar - 1.5 tbsp. l;
- salt - 1.5 tsp;
- water - 250 ml;
- dry yeast - 7 gr;
- vegetable oil - 2 tbsp. l.

How to cook with a photo step by step




To prepare Italian-style buns, pour dry yeast (about 1.5 tsp) into a small bowl, pour half a glass of warm water. Stir, the yeast should disperse in the water. Cover and leave for 15 minutes. During this time, the yeast is activated, a cap of foam will appear on the surface - this means that they are ready to work.




Be sure to sift wheat flour. Corn sieves do not need to be sifted, but it is advisable to scatter it on a light plate to make sure there are no impurities.





We mix both types of flour, and add not all wheat, but about two-thirds of the indicated amount.







Add salt, sugar, yeast from the bowl and the remaining water (it needs to be heated to be warm-hot). Stir, leave for 10 minutes, so that the cornmeal swells a little.





Pour vegetable oil into the dough, mix all the ingredients and put a sticky lump of dough on the table. Sprinkle the surface of the table with flour, which was taken from the reserved portion.





Knead the dough for 10 minutes, gradually adding the reserved flour. At first, the dough will be sticky, so grease your hands with oil and gradually add flour. The kneaded dough for buns will turn out soft, but it should not stick to your hands. We collect it in a bun, put it in a bowl greased with oil or sprinkled with flour and put it in heat for proofing.







After an hour or more, the dough should rise well, at least three times. We crush it around the edges, divide it into two parts.





Then we divide into small pieces and roll them into balls. Each part will make 5-6 small Italian buns. We will leave a very small piece of dough, we will dilute it in water and grease the buns before baking so that the sprinkling sticks better and does not crumble.





We shift the blanks onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Cover and let rise (it takes about half an hour). Dilute a piece of dough in warm water, with the resulting talker, coat the risen buns. Sprinkle with cornmeal and put in a hot oven.




We set the temperature to 180 degrees, put the baking sheet on the middle level. We bake buns for 20 minutes. Then we make the temperature 200 degrees, raise it by upper tier and brown for five minutes.







We put the finished buns on a wooden board or parchment, cool and serve for evening tea, lunch or breakfast. This is how Italian cornmeal buns are baked. Enjoy your meal!
