Sweet sweet and lean, with a variety of fillings and without them, buns are always welcome to tea. They can easily have a snack “on working noon”, stock up on a short trip, and just order in a cafe, for a cup of tea.
A special case is the attitude towards little sweets to the buns. It's such a delight, if you can, together with your comrades, enjoy the air buns, sneaking them away from your mother!
Well, all that is left for moms is to knead the dough, prepare the stuffing and bake the most delicious buns in the world. There are plenty of options for such uncomplicated baking, but in order to get an airy delicacy, you need to knead the dough with yeast.
General principles of making air buns
• Yeast dough is prepared on dry or fresh pressed yeast, which is activated with warm milk. To speed up the process they add sugar. The prepared mixture is left for some time warm, until bubbles appear on its surface. Further mixing is carried out according to the recipe, since each type of dough has its own nuances that cannot be ignored.
• Properly activated yeast is only half the success. Well-kneaded yeast dough, so that the buns turn out to be airy, must rise — increase in volume, at least twice. For this, it, like yeast, is placed in heat. The exposure time can last from one to two hours and depends not only on the type of yeast, but also on the amount of baking. The more eggs and butter in the dough, the longer it fits.
• After raising, the dough is necessarily crushed to release excess air from it. Then cut into portions and sculpted buns. The formation of buns has its own subtleties, as it can affect the fluffiness no less than the factors described above. You can not roll out the dough thinly, the minimum thickness of the layers should be 8 or more millimeters. It is unacceptable to fold yeast dough thick rolls, between the layers should be a bit of free space to rise.

Secrets and tricks of making air buns
• When activating the yeast, strictly observe the temperature regime. Do not pour the yeast with cold or overly hot liquid, they may die and air baking will not work. Be sure to let the yeast mixture stand out a bit, it takes time to successfully activate.
• Knead the yeast dough slowly, carefully distribute the newly added ingredients throughout its volume. The dough must be homogeneous, without any inclusions and poorly mixed flour.
• If the room is cool, place the container with the kneaded dough close to the battery or the oven turned on. Additionally, wrap the bowl in a blanket.
