Butter Buns

I love butter flavor ,mostly I used butter for my cooking or baking. Whenever butter on sale I'm sure grab few boxes for storage.Usually I will get unsalted butter in stick. I guess because mostly I used it for baking so unsalted butter is more suitable. This time I infused butter with sugar into the bun,so I called Butter Bun!! This Butter Buns is really good to eat as breakfast or snack with a cup of coffee or tea..If you like soft and moist bun,you must try out this recipe!!.Previously I used this recipe for HOT DOG Bun!!! But this time I converted and adapted the original recipe for this Butter Buns!!
Ingredients:

300g bread flour,sifted
1 tbsp instant dried yeast
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp unsalted butter (room temperature)
250 ml whole milk
1 egg


Filling:
1 stick (8 tbsp) butter,soften and mix with
4 tbsp granulated sugar
*chill it in the fridge for 1-2 hours before use*


Glazing:
1 egg,lightly beaten
2 tbsp water
2 tbsp sesame seeds





Method For Bread Machine:


1:Measure and sifted flour,salt and sugar in a medium bowl .
2:Place milk + egg and butter first in BM container,then add in flour mixture.Lastly add in instant yeast.Then press the key function on *Dough* .Or you can dump everything in the baking pan,then press dough and then start cycle.
3:Let's the BM mix and knead the dough until the cycle finish with "beep" then the BM start proofing the dough for the next cycle.
4:Remove the dough when proofing cycle finish,then punch down the dough to release the air.Knead the dough a couple of times,then divide the dough into 12 pieces,about 80 gm each.
5:Roll the divided roll into ball shape.Flatten and roll the dough into round shape.Wrap the dough on your palm,then fill with 1 tbsp butter filling.Shape the dough into rounds again.Then place the butter dough on a muffin lined cup.Keep repeat the same procedure until the dough finish.
6:Cover the shaped dough with a piece of damp cloth or damp paper towel and leave aside to rise until doubled size.
7:Pre-heat oven to 375 F. Brush egg wash on top of the round dough before sprinkle with some sesame seeds on the top. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
8:Remove from oven and let's cool 5 minutes before serve warm.

I'm thinking of buying a bread machine to help with kneading the dough as it saves so much time. May I ask what's the brand of your breadmachine ?

I love this bun when I was a kid!! When I was really young (ahem), we would get it from the roti van then we moved to HDB flat, I would get it from the local bakery. Ah ... thanks for much for sharing the recipe, it reminds me of the good old times.

Thanks for your recipe. Do you have problems with the butter/sugar mixture flowing out of the bun during the last few mins. of baking. I followed your recipe of filling it with 1 Tbs. of the mixture.
