Cumin Cheese Buns: Fluffy, Cheesy, and Aromatically Irresistible

par
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
  2. Pour in the yeast mixture and knead for 8–10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  3. Incorporate the softened butter during kneading for a rich, supple texture.

Step 3: First Rise

  1. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise for 1–1½ hours or until doubled in size.

Step 4: Shape the Buns

  1. Punch down the dough to release air and divide it into equal portions.
  2. Flatten each piece, add about 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese in the center, and seal tightly to form a bun.
  3. Place the buns on a parchment-lined baking tray, seam side down.

Step 5: Add the Flavorful Topping

  1. Brush each bun with egg wash for shine.
  2. Sprinkle toasted cumin seeds on top for an aromatic, slightly smoky finish.

Step 6: Bake to Perfection

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Bake for 18–20 minutes or until the buns are golden brown and the cheese inside is melted.
  3. For extra softness, brush the hot buns with melted butter right after baking.
