Strawberry & Champagne Buns

Ingredients

  • 180ml milk

  • 30g butter, melted

  • 1 medium egg

  • 375g plain flour

  • 40g sugar

  • 3g salt

  • 1 jar Thursday Cottage Strawberry Jam with Champagne 210g

  • 150g cream cheese

  • 150g icing sugar

Directions

  2. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Add the wet ingredients and stir until a loose dough comes together.

  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured worktop and knead for 5 minutes. Pop the dough into a bowl, cover, and leave to rise for one hour (or overnight in the fridge).

  4. Roll out the dough to approximately 20” by 14”. Spread one whole jar of Thursday Cottage Strawberry Jam with Champagne over the dough before taking hold of the long end and rolling it into a cylinder.

  5. Cut the cylinder into 12 pieces and arrange them in your baking tray or pie dish. Cover with clingfilm or a damp tea towel and leave for an hour or until doubled in size.

  6. Preheat the oven to 190C/170C (fan)/gas mark 5. Bake the buns for 20-25 minutes, or until golden.

  7. Whilst the buns are cooling, whisk together the icing sugar and cream cheese to create a loose icing. Spread the icing over the buns and leave to set slightly before enjoying with a cup of tea.
