You can use a mixer with a dough attachment or you can just knead the dough by hand. When the dough has passed the window pane test you can now gradually knead in your butter until combined and passes the window pane test again.
- Leave it to rest and rise for 30 min in a bowl covered with a damp cloth. When it has doubled in size you can now transfer it to a clean bench and lightly degas or deflate the dough roll it to a baton then cut into 4-6 pieces and roll them into a ball.

When its ready to bake brush the dough with your egg wash and bake it for 7 minutes then turn the oven down to 180 C. Turn the tray around to get an even colour and bake for another 5-7 min, as far as 10 min until it reacher a nice golden amber colour. Take our of the over and let it cool down for 5-10 min before serving.
