Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 2 tbsp additional sugar for topping

How to Make Mango Cream Buns

  1. In a small bowl, combine warm milk and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture, melted butter, and egg. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  4. While the dough is rising, prepare the cream filling. In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add 2 tablespoons of sugar, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  5. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place them on a greased baking sheet, leaving space between each bun.
  6. Cover the buns with a cloth and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the buns for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  8. Let the buns cool slightly before using a knife to create a small slit in the top of each bun. Pipe or spoon the whipped cream into the center of each bun.
  9. Top each bun with diced mango and sprinkle with additional sugar. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Ensure your milk is warm but not hot to properly activate the yeast.
  • Knead the dough thoroughly for a light and fluffy texture.
  • Use ripe mango for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Don’t skip the second rise; it’s crucial for fluffy buns.

Easy Variations

  • Substitute the mango with other fruits like strawberries, blueberries, or kiwi for a different flavor.
  • Add a splash of vanilla extract to the whipped cream for extra flavor.
  • For a tropical twist, incorporate shredded coconut into the cream filling.

What to Serve With It

  • A side of fresh fruit salad for a refreshing contrast.
  • A scoop of vanilla ice cream for added indulgence.
  • A drizzle of chocolate or caramel sauce for extra sweetness.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftover Mango Cream Buns in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds or in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes until warmed through.
