Ingredients  

  • 1 tbsp canola oil
  • 250 g bread dough premade
  • 4 turkey hot dogs
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp water
  • ¼ cup green onions chopped
  • 1 tsp black sesame seeds
  • 1 tsp white sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Cut 4x 5-inch squares of parchment paper and lightly oil one side of each piece. Set aside, laid out.
  • Split the proofed dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece of dough out to a rectangle the length of the turkey dog and about 2-4 inches wide. Place the turkey dog in the center of the rectangle, lengthwise and wrap the turkey dog fully with the dough.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut the dough wrapped turkey dog into 6-7 equal discs. These are the petals of the flower.
  • On the parchment paper, form each flower bun by placing one disc of wrapped turkey dog in the centre and 5-6 petals around the centre.
  • Repeat steps 2-4 for remaining dough and turkey dogs to form each flower bun.
  • Let the dough sit for 1 hour and proof for a second time as needed.
  • Once the dough is ready, make an egg wash by whisking the egg with 2 Tbsp of water. Brush the bun with the egg wash, top with green onion and sesame seeds.
  • Cook each bun in the CHEFMAN Air Fryer at 325 degrees F for 11 minutes total. After 5 minutes, remove the parchment paper from under the bun and cook for the remaining 6 minutes.

Tips & Tricks

Any rising dough will work from store bought puff pastry to pizza dough.

To second proof your dough, turn your oven on the lowest setting for one minute to warm up and then turn off. Put the tray of buns into the oven with a bowl of hot water for approximately 1 hour.

When removing the parchment paper, if the bottom of the bun is still sticking to it, let it cook for another minute.
