As a young child there are few things that I instantly loved to eat – SWEET MILK BREAD, however, was definitely one of them. A bread called by many names, there are DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF SWEET BREAD IN DIFFERENT CULTURES. In America, these are referred to as DINNER ROLLS OR SWEET ROLLS, in the Philippines they are called PANDESAL, in Japan SWEET MILK BREAD, in Mexico PAN DULCE. I could go on and on because we all have a certain way of making them.

I wanted to share with you MY FAVORITE VERSIONS, one which is made with HONEY AND BUTTER and the other, which is MY OWN TAKE ON A FILIPINO UBE SWEET BREAD ROLL.

Here are what the simple HONEY AND BUTTER SWEET MILK BREAD ROLLS look like:

Yes, I LOVE THIS RECIPE (SEE BELOW) BECAUSE ANYONE CAN DO IT AT HOME!

FIRST and foremost, PROOF YOUR YEAST before you make bread to ensure that it is viable. In the case of this recipe, it involves MIXING THE YEAST WITH WARM MILK AND GRANULATED SUGAR and then ALLOWING IT TO SIT IN A BOWL FOR 5-10 MIN. You’ll know it is ACTIVE IF YOU SEE LOTS OF BUBBLES/GAS FORMING WITHIN THE MIXTURE. It basically means that THE YEAST IS CONSUMING THE SUGARS, FORMING CARBON DIOXIDE AND FERMENTING:

When you have GOOD ACTIVE YEAST, then your DOUGH WILL RISE BEAUTIFULLY:

This is HOW I STUFF THE ROLL WITH UBE:

Then you just ROLL THEM INTO NICE, UNIFORM BALLS AND PLACE THEM IN AN OIL-SPRAYED BAKING DISH. Here is the resulting DELICIOUSNESS:

SOFT, FLUFFY, AND LIGHTLY SWEET, this SWEET MILK BREAD is a WONDERFUL WAY TO INTRODUCE YOURSELF TO BREAD-MAKING.
