Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Eat Your Books

    Can substitute fast-action dried yeast for fresh yeast, twarog cheese for cream cheese, and soft light brown sugar for a portion of the caster sugar. See recipe for fruit suggestions.

    Since others mentioned that these are large I divided the dough into 9 buns. They were still quite large. I used cream cheese and the filling became quite runny so I wasn't able to use all of the filling up as I was afraid it would run off of the buns. Will try with twarog next time. Did not make any crumble because I wanted a less sweet bun.

    These are light and fluffy as Zosia stated. 75 grms were used for each bun and I got 8.They were still too big. Twarog cheese was used and some topped with apricot jam. Will make less crumble next time. Loved them will make again.

    These were light and fluffy and delicious. I made six (~100g dough) but I prefer a smaller ratio of bun to topping so I will make 8 next time and make only half the crumb topping recipe as there was quite a bit left. I added 1/2 tsp salt to the dough, used half the amount of yeast (SAF gold) and made the cheese topping with twarog. While they were best on baking day, they were stll very good on subsequent days reheated in the microwave.
