Makes 12 buns.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ingredients for the dough:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
• 490 g strong white bread flour<\/li>\n
• 30 g fresh yeast or 14 g dry yeast<\/li>\n
• 215 ml milk<\/li>\n
• 100 g butter, melted<\/li>\n
• 1 large egg<\/li>\n
• 2 large egg yolks<\/li>\n
• 100 g caster sugar<\/li>\n
• 1\/4 teaspoon salt<\/li>\n
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Mix flour with dry yeast (or prepare a starter if using fresh yeast). Add remaining ingredients and knead, adding melted butter at the end. Knead until soft and elastic. Place in a floured bowl, cover, and leave in a warm place until doubled in size (about 1.5 hours).<\/p>\n

  Knead briefly again, divide into 12 portions (about 85 g each), and shape into balls. Arrange on a lined baking tray, leaving space between them (they will join during baking). Cover and let rise again for 30 – 45 minutes.<\/p>\n

  Once risen, press a deep well into each bun using the bottom of a glass. Fill with a mix of strawberries and cooled custard (piping bag works well). Sprinkle with crumble.<\/p>\n

  Bake at 180\u00b0C for 25\u201328 minutes. Remove, cool slightly, and serve.<\/p>\n

  Ingredients for vanilla custard:<\/span><\/p>\n

  \n
  • 4 egg yolks<\/li>\n
  • 65 g sugar<\/li>\n
  • 30 g plain flour<\/li>\n
  • 300 ml milk<\/li>\n
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla paste or seeds from 1 vanilla pod<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Whisk yolks and sugar until pale and fluffy. Add 50 ml milk, flour, and vanilla, then mix.<\/p>\n

    Bring remaining milk to a boil. Pour in the yolk mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened like custard. Cover with cling film (touching the surface) and cool.<\/p>\n

    Ingredients for crumble topping:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
    • 50 g butter, melted<\/li>\n
    • 100 g plain flour<\/li>\n
    • 50 g sugar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Rub all ingredients together until crumbly.<\/p>\n

      Additionally:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
      • 300 g strawberries, hulled<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Method for bread machine users:<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Place all the yeast dough ingredients into the bread machine in the following order: liquid ingredients first, then dry ingredients, and finally the yeast. Select the \u2018dough\u2019 programme (kneading and first rise). Once the programme has finished, remove the dough, knead it lightly, and continue according to the main recipe above.<\/p>\n

        Enjoy!<\/p>\n
