Method
Rub the margarine into the cake flour with the fingertips and mix with the other ingredients. Add the Anchor Instant Yeast and mix.
Add lukewarm milk, eggs and enough lukewarm water and mix to form a soft dough. If the dough is too dry, add a little more water.
Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Divide the dough into 12 equal balls, roll out into circles 1 cm thick and ± 20 cm in diameter and place on a greased baking tray. Allow to rise until double in volume, about 15 - 20 minutes.
Bake in a preheated oven at 210 °C / 425 °F for 15 - 20 minutes.
Cut horizontally and fill with any filling of your choice.
