Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and a teaspoon of sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
- Add melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, remaining sugar, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix well.
- Gradually add flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a round bun.
- Place the buns on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the buns for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
- While the buns are cooling, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
- Once the buns are cool, cut a small slit on the top and fill each with whipped cream and top with fresh berries.
- Dust the buns with additional powdered sugar before serving.
Chef’s Tips
- For extra flavor, try adding a teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dough.
- Make sure your milk is not too hot when adding the yeast to avoid killing it.
- These buns can be made ahead and frozen; just thaw and fill before serving.
