Yes, i did it!


Finally...

Bread that is really edible! A yummy one too :P


Coffee Milk Bun, Angie's yummy recipe

But of course, my bread is nothing compares to Angie's. Somehow, i couldn't shape my dough at all. Too sticky. I wonder if it's due to the substituted bread flour with cake flour? Didn't have enough bread flour then and i didn't even realise, as usual :P

So instead of making them into buns, a loaf it was.


Funny colour right? Hb snapped this using his new hp, N95 which he loves, especially the camera and kindly offered to exchange his hp with mine! (if only u know what hp i'm using, u'll faint! Too outdated! :P)

But i did tweak the recipe slightly besides the 'unavoidable' bread flour substitution, which was to mix 3 tsp of coffee granules with hot water instead of 2 tsp since Angie mentioned on that coffee aroma/taste bit.


The bread texture

Nevertheless, improvement is very much needed when it comes to bread baking. I wish i have enough guinea pigs to help me eat it but unfortunately, i don't. Er, anyone stays in Choa Chu Kang? Heh.

Hi friend, your breads looks soft and fluffy, and very tall loaf too. Great job!

^cherie said...

Thanks Angie but dunno why the dough was very sticky! Couldn't handle it at all.. :(

Unknown said...

Went back to read your post again, I think your cake flour might have caused the stickiness. Cake flour absorbs less water than bread flour, so if the same amount of liquid is added, the dough would become very sticky.

Ahhh... i suspected the flour too. Now u've confirmed it, i'll try baking this again. Love the coffee aroma when the bread is baking :)

Thanks angie!
