Categories     Breads

Time 55m

Yield 15 buns

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups flour, strong
3 teaspoons dried yeast
1/4 cup sugar
60 g butter
1 egg
1 1/2 cups milk
2 cups coconut milk

Steps:

  • To make the buns place the flour, yeast and sugar in a bowl.
  • Melt the butter and add the milk. When warm add the egg and beat well.
  • Pour this into the flour mix and form into a soft dough.
  • Turn out and knead until smooth and shiny - about 10 minutes.
  • Place in an oiled bowl and roll the dough around until its covered in the oil.
  • Cover with cling wrap and leave until double in size.
  • Turn out and knock down. Divide into 15 pieces and shape each into a smooth bun shape.
  • Place in greased/oiled cake pan so they are just touching and set aside to rise again until doubled in size.
  • Preheat oven to 180°C.
  • Pour over coconut milk. It should just cover the buns. Bake for 35-40 mins or until golden brown.
  • Remove from oven and eat while still warm.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my Lolo buns turned out dry and crumbly. I'm going to try making them again with a different recipe.

These Lolo buns are a bit denser than I expected, but they're still very tasty.

These Lolo buns are the perfect combination of sweet and savory. The coconut filling is perfectly balanced by the slightly salty bun.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my Lolo buns didn't turn out as fluffy as I had hoped. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I'll definitely try making them again.

I'm not usually a fan of coconut, but these Lolo buns changed my mind! The coconut filling was subtle and delicate, and it paired perfectly with the soft and fluffy bun.
