Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Basic enriched dough

    • stef on December 21, 2025

      A lovely soft dough to work with. Baked up crunchy and soft.

  • Tangzhong method dough

    • Astrid5555 on August 29, 2025

      Easy to make and turns into beautifully fluffy buns which are still perfect the following day.

  • Blackberry oat crumble [buns]

    • Astrid5555 on August 29, 2025

      These are probably the best buns I have ever baked. Beautifully fluffy with a vanilla-y filling and just the right tang from the blackberry bay leave compote with some added crunch from the oat crumble. Addictive!

  • School buns

    • stef on November 23, 2025

      These buns are so light and fluffy. Used the tangzhong dough method. Pastry came out nice and smooth and instead of coconut I sprinkled oat crumbs. Heavenly. Each bun was 60grms baked 375 18 minutes.

Publishers Text

Buns are the sort of minimum-effort, maximum-reward baking that is popular for a reason - and they're surprisingly easy to make once you get the dough down. You really don't need many ingredients either.

Including a handful of basic dough recipes, with vegan and gluten-free options, you'll find fun and delicious flavor combinations like saffron and almond, pistachio and lime and tahini and chocolate. Inspired by the world's best bakes, recipes range from Italian orange maritozzi to classic Danish cinnamon buns, with many more in between.
