Our Might bake for the Bread Baking Babes is a singular providing, hailing from Korea, and is principally a cross between a cream cheese Danish and garlic bread! Our host at My Diverse Kitchen talked about that though some issues like this bun are usually not conventional meals, they’ve change into uniquely Korean. This recipe began as a road food.
“The Korean Cream Cheese Garlic Bun is nothing just like the Western fashion Garlic Bread. Slightly, it’s a very comfortable bun that’s divided into six equal segments or “leaves/ petals”. It’s crammed with a frivolously sweetened cream cheese after which dunked into custardy, frivolously candy and savoury garlic butter combination. That is then baked until frivolously crunchy on the surface.”
The bun a part of this recipe was a beautiful dough to work with as soon as it bought to the right consistency, I did have so as to add extra milk than known as for to realize a pleasant, comfortable dough. They baked up fantastically and I discovered a nifty hack for not losing a complete egg on an egg wash, one thing that all the time bugs me. I figured that mayonnaise is egg primarily based and so I thinned a squirt of mayo with some water and used that as a wash. It labored properly and did not waste an egg. You aren’t getting the deep shine of an egg wash, however that was not mandatory for these twice baked buns anyway. Truthfully, I’d fortunately make simply the buns once more, it was a extremely tasty, comfortable, and simply barely candy bread. (I added a spoonful of sleepy sourdough starter simply because.)
The concept of a barely candy garlic bread was uncommon to us to say the least, so we did attempt one bun with out garlic. It tasted like a pleasant cream cheese Danish. Eldest appreciated the garlic model higher however wasn’t fairly positive what she considered the sweetness. It was attention-grabbing for positive and undoubtedly a wealthy and attractive deal with. Liked the crunchy panko topping! Hubby had a slight choice for the plain bun however was not postpone by the garlic. I would skinny the garlic butter dunk just a little with some milk subsequent time as mine was thick sufficient to require a second batch to complete coating the buns.
These are fairly wonderful when heat, undoubtedly eat them that method! We might like to have you ever check out this uniquely Korean deal with with us this month

Knock down the dough and knead together with your palms for an additional 3-5 minutes. Divide dough into 6 equal items, shaping every right into a clean spherical ball.

Pipe a “cheap” quantity of the candy cream cheese combination in between the sections of the bun.
Rigorously maintain the bun reduce facet down and dunk into the sweet-savoury garlic butter with out the cream cheese falling out. Flip bread roll the wrong way up and ensure the bun is totally and properly coated. Drain extra again into your garlic butter bowl. (You should utilize a ladle to facilitate this course of.)
Place the coated bun on a parchment lined baking sheet. Repeat with the opposite buns. Sprinkle the tops with Panko bread crumbs. Pipe a largish blob on the center of the buns the place the ends of the slices of the buns meet, if desired. (I skipped that addition.)
Bake them at 165ºC (330ºF) for about quarter-hour until the highest feels crisp and the bread crumbs a light-weight golden brown. Serve heat.
