How to make buns

Ingredients

400 g all-purpose flour
3 tbsp of butter
1 tbsp baking powder
100 g sugar substitute with honey
1 tsp salt
100-150 ml water
1 egg
1 tsp Vanilla extract optional
Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions

1. Add all the dry ingredients with the butter in a bowl and mix to form crumble.
2. Add the egg and water and mix to form a thick stretchy batter, then add water to the flour in bits till you achieve the desired consistency. Do not overwork the batter
Place a shallow pan on medium heat, add vegetable oil and allow to heat up till hot (About 3 inches high)
3. Drop little batter into the oil to test if it’s hot enough for use. If the batter floats atop, then it’s ready.
You can fry this in a deep fryer at 180C
4. Carefully drop the batter in the hot oil in batches but don’t overcrowd the oil.
5. Reduce the heat and fry the buns till golden brown and well done
Repeat this process until you have exhausted the whole batter mix.
Notes
Tip:
reduce the heat each time you are frying a new batch then turn the heat back up to for even cooking. This way the buns don’t turn brown quickly without cooking through
