How to bake beautiful, delicious sweet buns with raisins from yeast dough in the oven at home? Prepare the necessary products. Take premium flour, it is most suitable for making butter dough. Milk of any fat content is suitable; it must be slightly warmed.

Step 2

Step 2
Sift the flour through a sieve. To do this, choose a spacious bowl with high sides so that the flour does not spill onto the table during the process. Sifting will enrich the flour with oxygen. Thanks to this, the dough will rise easily, and the baked goods will turn out fluffy and airy.
