Chef tips
To let the dough fully absorb the spice flavors, let it rise slowly in the fridge overnight; the cold develops the texture, making the buns incredibly airy and soft. For a sweeter version, add a handful of raisins or dried cranberries to the dough. Let the kids help by brushing the buns with an egg wash before baking for a beautiful golden shine.
