Perfectly Round Cream Bread instructions
- (Make the streusel) Put all of the ingredients into a container and combine until clumpy. When done, place in the freezer..
- Refer to "Cream Bread Rolls"for details on the streusel..
- Make the bread dough and let it rise through the first proofing (until it doubled in size)..
- (Make the custard) Combine the flour and cornstarch, and sift..
- Put the egg yolk, sugar, and sifted powdered ingredients into a bowl..
- Use a whisk to mix..
- Gradually add in the milk and stir it gently so that it doesn't form lumps..
- Make sure it's smooth, and then move it to a heat-resistant dish..
- Microwave for 5-6 minutes (take it out to stir 2 or 3 times)..
- (Make the custard - 7) Add the butter and mix it quickly..
- Cover tightly with plastic wrap so that it doesn't form condensation, and let it cool..
- Once cooled, add the vanilla essence..
- Use a rubber spatula to stir until smooth..
- Place it into a pastry bag (tie the tip lightly with a rubber band so that the cream doesn't squeeze out in large dollops. Pinch the top of the bag closed with a clothespin.).
- After the bread has risen the first time, divide into portions. Gently release the gas and form into balls. Let rest for 15 minutes..
- Gently push down on the dough with your hands to release the gas and then use a rolling pin to roll it out into a circle..
- Put the dough into the aluminum foil cups and push down lightly with your fingertips. Use a fork to poke the dough (so it doesn't expand)..
- Fill it up with lots of custard cream..
- Let it rise for the final time (about 30 minutes) until about 1.5x larger. (I used the oven's bread rising function at 40°C. In the summer, let sit at room temperature.).
- Coat the bread dough with milk using a brush (for shine), and top with the streusel..
- Bake in a preheated 180°C oven for 13-15 minutes..
- When you want to reheat them, remove from the aluminum cups, cover with plastic wrap, and heat for 20 seconds in a 500 W microwave. They'll be nice and fluffy again, just like they're fresh out of the oven..
- I formed them into shapes before baking them..
- Instead of streusel, you can use powdered sugar as a topping..
- Top the streusel on muffins, cakes, and sweet breads..
In a stand mixer add the warm water, sugar, salt and yeast. Using the dough hook start adding the flour one cup at a time until the dough combines and forms a soft dough. On a floured surface knead the dough until smooth and elastic and form a ball. With a sharp knife or razor, slash the top of the bread. Make light, fluffy cloud bread with three simple ingredients: McCormick® Cream of Tartar, eggs and cream cheese.
