Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
2 large eggs, room temperature
¼ cup whole milk, warm
4 tbsp unsalted butter, softened and cut into 1-inch pieces

For the egg wash

1 large egg
1 tbsp whole milk

For topping

2 tbsp sesame seeds

Instructions

1
Combine the warm water, yeast, and 1 tsp sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer and stir briefly. Let stand for 5–8 minutes, until the mixture is foamy and visibly active.
2
Add the flour, 2 tbsp sugar, salt, 2 eggs, and warm milk to the yeast mixture. Mix on low speed with the dough hook until a shaggy dough forms, about 2 minutes, then increase to medium speed and knead for 5 minutes, until the dough is smooth and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
