Recipe for homemade buns
Delicious and moist buns that taste wonderful with butter, cheese, and jam.
The dough for the buns includes oatmeal, which makes the baked buns moist and flavorful.
You can, as we have done here, cook a portion of oatmeal to add to the dough, but if you have leftover oatmeal from breakfast, it is perfect to use in the dough. This way, you avoid food waste and get a really delicious result – not too bad!
