How to Make Flower Buns with Cheese and Sausage
  1. Combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast in a large bowl. Allow the mixture to sit until it's foamy, about 5-10 minutes.
  2. Mix in all-purpose flour, salt, melted butter, egg, and ground sausage. Stir until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Let rise in a greased bowl, covered with a towel, until doubled in size, approximately 1 hour.
  5. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Shape the buns.
  6. Divide the dough into 12 pieces and shape into buns. Place on a baking sheet.
  7. Top each bun with mozzarella cheese and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds if desired.
  8. Bake for about 20 minutes until golden-brown.
