Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    I also made them with different flavors!

    Replaced 1/2 cup water with whole milk in place of milk powder with no issues.

    As suggested in the headnote, I froze the shaped rings after the final rest and baked from frozen. Worked perfectly. I enjoyed one split, filled with cheese, while my son preferred his with jam. I had another one later with almond butter. All very good!

    I am a terribly baker and these came out amazingly! I made the dough in the bread machine (basic dough) and replaced the milk powder with milk because I didn't have any.

    Very tasty. Soft and airy inside, with a nice bite to the crust.

    Very good, quick and easy recipe. Made 18 smaller rings instead of 6 large ones as part of a mezze spread. Looks cute!

    We loved these so much, will have to make them again. I used soy yoghurt instead of milk powder and soy milk with maple syrup instead of an egg to coat them.
