step by step

Method

  1. Make the tangzhong

    • Whisk the milk and flour in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until it thickens into a paste.
    • Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
    Step 1

  2. Activate the yeast

    • In a bowl, combine the warm milk, yeast and honey.
    • Let sit until foamy.
    Step 2

  3. Mix the dough

    • In a large bowl, mix the bread flour, milk powder, sugar and salt.
    • Add the yeast mixture, tangzhong, egg, egg yolk and vanilla.
    • Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
    Step 3

  4. Rest the dough

    • Let the dough rest.
    Step 4

  5. Knead in the butter

    • Gradually knead the softened butter into the dough a little at a time.
    • Continue kneading until the dough is soft, stretchy and slightly tacky.
    • If kneading by hand and the dough becomes too hard, add a bit more flour until you can knead it into a smooth ball.
    Step 5

  6. First rise

    • Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place until doubled.
    Step 6

  7. Shape the buns

    • Divide the dough into equal portions.
    • Flatten each piece, place a scoop of Nutella in the center and fold halfway.
    • Pinch the seams tightly closed and cut strips into the remaining half, then lay each strip over the top.
    Step 7

  8. Second rise

    • Place the buns into a parchment-lined baking dish, cover and let rise until puffy.
    Step 8

  9. Bake

    • Brush the buns with the egg wash.
    • Bake at 350°F until deeply golden on top.
    • Brush with melted butter immediately after baking so they stay soft.
