Sheermal | Sheermal Bread || How to Make Bakery sheermal with step-by-step photos
Bakery sheermal is quite sweet, fluffy, and soft bread, a larger size than bun
burgers. typically available in all bakeries in Pakistan.The most popular
bakery items
That can be served with tea, chicken curry, or kababs.
I made 4 types of sheermal just in one dough. In
my home, my brother loves to eat sheermal, so most of the time I used to buy it from
bakeries. Now, for the first time, I tried to make it at home; you won’t believe my first attempt was successful.
Because I know very well about baking bread, and
if you are experienced in any field, you can achieve the goal easily.
So what I learned here. Practice does matter in
every field of life. Keep learning, and then you will be able to face new
challenges.
Trust me, when I started my blog in 2018. I was
unable to cook any new things perfectly. now Alhamdulilah I am perfect at
cooking,g regardless of how many mistakes I made to learn new things in 3 years anyhow
HOW
TO STORE AND REHEAT BAKERY SHEERMAL:
You can wrap the baked sheermal in foil, put it in an airtight container, and store it in the fridge. They will last for 2-3
days. You can reheat them in the microwave. Place the sheermal on a
microwave-safe dish, cover it with a damp towel, and then warm in 30-second
bursts.

Recipe notes:
Dough: To create perfect, fluffy sheermal, knead an elastic and super soft dough. If your dough is dense, the resulting sheermal will turn out hard.
Resting the dough after forming the balls is essential for achieving fluffy and light bread. Each sheermal dough ball should weigh approximately 200 grams.
Butter: I recommend using butter for this recipe, as it makes the bread soft and flavorful compared to using oil.
Milk Powder: I used full-cream milk powder in the dough, but you can also knead the dough with warm milk.
Egg: Using an egg is optional; if you prefer not to use eggs, you can skip this step.
Baking: Bake the sheermal on the middle rack of the oven with the double grills for about 15-20 minutes. Avoid overbaking, as this can make the sheermal dry.
Lemon Essence: A few drops of lemon essence add a delightful aroma, similar to bakery-style sheermals.
Variations: I made four types of sheermal by sprinkling different toppings: seeds, sugar, nigella seeds, and a fourth version with tutti frutti and dried fruits. Feel free to create variations of your choice.
Lukewarm Water: The water temperature should be between 110 and 112°F (42-44°C). If the water is too hot, it will kill the yeast, and if it’s too cold, the dough won’t rise properly.
