📝 Ingredients

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1
    Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. 2
    In a large bowl, combine the self-rising flour and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until well mixed.
  3. 3
    Gradually add the plain yogurt (or milk) to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Avoid overmixing.
  4. 4
    Gently fold in the cooked and crumbled bacon bits until evenly distributed.
  5. 5
    Lightly flour a clean work surface. Turn the dough out and gently pat it into a rough rectangle, about 1 inch (2.5 cm) thick.
  6. 6
    Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into 12 equal squares.
  7. 7
    Place the buns on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
  8. 8
    Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. They should sound hollow when tapped.
  9. 9
    Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving warm.

💡 Notes

For best results, use full-fat yogurt for extra moist buns. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own: for every cup of all-purpose flour, add 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. These buns are best served warm but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
