Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 7 grams Instant yeast
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 Egg
- 130 milliliters Whole milk
- 200 milliliters Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 20 grams Powdered sugar
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, yeast, and sugar.
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the melted butter and milk mixture.
Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Cover the buns with a damp cloth and let them rise again for 20 minutes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Allow the buns to cool completely on a wire rack.
In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with the vanilla extract and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
Once the buns are cool, slice halfway through each bun and fill generously with the whipped cream.
Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful low sodium treat.
