INGREDIENTSBuns


  • 3 cups all purpose flour plus 1 Tbsp additional for flouring hands and risen dough
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsps quick rise yeast
  • 2 Tbsp fine sugar (granulated not icing sugar)
  • 3 Tbsps butter melted
  • 1 cup + 3 Tbsps whole milk

Filling

  • 1 cup whipped cream or devonshire cream
  • 1/2 cup jam
  • icing sugar for dusting
  • Bread Machine Devonshire Buns


INSTRUCTIONS


  • Mix flour, salt and sugar together until evenly distributed.
  • Combine milk and melted butter and microwave a minute or so. Milk should be hot to the touch but not boiling.
  • Add ingredients to your bread machine in order recommended by manufacturer. Mine is liquid on the bottom, flour mix and yeast on top. (see Note 1 below for hand kneading instructions).
  • After dough cycle is complete ( end of first rise for manual method) heat your oven to 390 degrees F. Line baking sheet(s) with parchment paper.
  • Use the extra flour to transfer dough to a work surface. Divide the dough into even portions. You can go with anywhere from 6 to 16 portions depending on the size of portion you want. ( I like to weigh my dough when halving and quartering to get evenly sized portions)
  • Shape each portion into an oblong shape with any seams on the underside.
  • Transfer buns to the baking sheet(s) evenly spaced. Do not crowd.
  • Bake about 15 minutes until buns are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped. Allow to cool completely.
  • Just before serving, split the buns horizontally.
  • Slather a row of jam into the bottom of the bun. Pipe cream into the hollow to fill and pipe or drizzle more jam along the top. Dust with icing sugar.
