Stappenplan


1

Mix the lukewarm milk with the sunflower oil, yeast, sugar, and vanilla sugar in a deep bowl. Mix well and let it sit for a while. Add the beaten egg and mix again. Finally, add the flour and mix well. Knead the dough for 10-12 minutes. Cover the dough and let it rise for 1 hour in a warm place, or until the dough has doubled in size.

2

Heat the milk in a pan with the sugar, vanilla sugar, and cornstarch over medium heat. Keep stirring. When the mixture starts to thicken, turn off the heat. Add the broken white chocolate and let it sit for 1 minute. Stir until completely melted. Add the grated coconut and mix well. Let the mixture cool.

3

Divide the dough into 12 pieces, each weighing 48 grams, and shape them into round balls.

4

Take a ball of dough and flatten it with a rolling pin to form an oval of 16x9 cm.

5

Place the dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and pipe the coconut mixture on top.

6

Fold the edges of the dough inward and press firmly.

7

Brush the sides of the dough with beaten egg and let it rise for 30 minutes or until it has doubled in size.

8

Place the coconut buns in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F). Bake for 7-10 minutes or until the buns are golden brown. Keep an eye on the baking time, as every oven works differently. Cover the buns immediately with a clean tea towel to keep them soft.

9

Place the mascarpone, whipping cream stabilizer, vanilla sugar, and sugar in a deep bowl. Mix for 30 seconds. Then, gradually add the heavy cream while mixing until stiff. Place the cream in a piping bag and don’t forget to attach the piping nozzle.

10

Sift powdered sugar over the coconut buns.

11

Pipe dollops of cream on top of the coconut buns.

12

Garnish the buns with strawberries, Raffaello, and edible rose petals.
