What is Cream Berry Buns

Yeast buns chilled overnight, shaped into balls, brushed with egg and baked, then filled with red berry jam and whipped cream.

How to make Cream Berry Buns

Tips from the cook

  • Weigh the pieces, so the buns are the same size and bake at the same speed.
  • Let the balls rise until puffy before baking.
  • Cool the buns completely before cutting the lids, or the cream melts.
  • Fill just before serving, as the cream softens the buns.

Meal prep and storage

Give the dough the full 10 to 18 hours in the fridge, as it builds flavour and is easier to shape when cold.
