Make the dough

[{"selector":"#anim-6d57b01c-1ad7-4ddf-b957-ec081e0712f8","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ceb21ba0-0686-453c-a678-781b482de9ff","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-120%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Step #1 Buchty dough is similar to brioche and is enriched with butter, milk and egg yolks.

The first rise

[{"selector":"#anim-03bfb309-27d8-427e-bcde-952ce2909377","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f40b662c-c7c6-4d02-a1d8-35932890471b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-120%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Step #2 Let the dough rise for 2 hours or until it doubles in size. The dough is quite heavy so it can take a bit longer to rise.

Shape and fill the buns

We chose cherry preserves!
