01
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, lemon zest, and instant yeast. Stir until evenly distributed.
Add the cubed butter and work it in with your fingers until the butter is well incorporated and in very small pieces.
Make a well in the center and add the warm milk. Stir until all the dry ingredients are incorporated.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 7-10 minutes until it becomes elastic, smoother, and stretches more than it tears. The dough will be very sticky, so avoid adding much more flour – no more than ¼ cup.
Place the dough ball in an oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap or a damp towel. Let it rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, about 1 hour.
