Total time: 37 min
Yield: 12 buns
Ingredients: 1-2 cups of whole-wheat flour; 1 cup all-purpose flour; 4 tsp vital wheat gluten ((if you're not using this, flip the proportions of all-purpose and whole-wheat flours and you should be fine)); 1 tbsp active dry yeast; 1/4 cup warm water; 1/2 cup soymilk; 2 tbsp vegetable oil (, like canola); 1/3 cup sugar; 1 tbsp flaxmeal + 3 tbsp water (, mixed); 1/4 tsp salt; 1/4 to 1/2 tsp saffron threads ((use more if you want more color and flavor. I used 1/4 tsp and the flavor was very exquisitely mild))
