Tips and Recommendations
- Make sure the almond milk is warm but not too hot, as it can kill the yeast.
- If you prefer a sweeter bun, you can increase the amount of sugar in the dough.
- For a richer flavor, you can add a splash of vanilla extract or almond extract to the dough.
- These buns are best enjoyed fresh on the day they are made, but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Simply reheat them in the oven or microwave before serving.
- Feel free to customize the toppings by using different seeds or nuts for added texture.
FAQs
