Ingredients

  • 60 ml ¼ cup lukewarm milk
  • 60 g ¼ cup caster sugar
  • 2 teaspoon dried yeast
  • 300 g 2 cups bakers flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 free-range eggs lightly whisked
  • 125 g 4.5ozbutter, at room temperature, cut into 1.5cm pieces
  • 100 g ½ cup, firmly packed brown sugar
  • 75 g ½ cup frozen blueberries
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tablespoon caster sugar extra
  • 35 g ⅓ cup flaked almonds

Instructions

  • In the bowl of an electric mixer with the dough hook attached, combine the milk, caster sugar, yeast, flour, salt and egg and mix until everything comes together.
  • Increase the speed to medium and knead until the dough is smooth (about 5 minutes).
  • With the mixer running, add two pieces of butter and knead them in. Continue with the remainder of the butter then knead until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  • Lightly butter a large bowl, shape the dough into a ball and place it in the bowl then cover with plastic wrap and set aside until it has doubled in size (about an hour).
  • Punch down the dough.
  • Lightly flour your bench then roll the dough out to a rectangle measuring 60x40cm.
  • Sprinkle the dough with the brown sugar and blueberries then roll tightly from the long side.
  • Cut the roll of dough into 12 pieces and place each one, cut side up/down in a case.
  • Cover the tray with plastic wrap and set aside to almost double in size again while the oven pre-heats to 180C (390F) fan-forced.
  • If you want to refrigerate or freeze the dough for later, place it in the fridge as soon as the rolls are in the tray.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the egg white, extra sugar and almonds then drizzle over the risen rolls.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Serve the buns warm or at room temperature (I think warm is best).
