Soft jam-filled sweet rolls (Bukta)

Recipes Cakes and Desserts
The soul of this yeasted dough lies in the work of the yeast: during resting, it produces millions of tiny gas bubbles, making the inside of the buns cloud-like and soft. The meeting of fluffy dough and thick jam evokes memories of childhood snacks. The secret to a good 'bukta' is patience: it must be allowed to prove properly.

⚠️ Eggs

Instructions

1 ✓

Dissolve the yeast in the lukewarm, sugary milk.

Tip: The yeast fungi 'wake up' and start feeding on the sugar, producing gas. If the top is frothy, they are active.
2 ✓

Knead together the flour, remaining sugar, salt, egg, melted butter and the yeasted milk.

Tip: Kneading develops the gluten structure, which makes the dough elastic and capable of holding gas bubbles.
3 ✓

Cover and leave to prove in a warm place for about 1 hour, until doubled in size.

Tip: Draughts are the enemy of yeast dough. Covering prevents drying out, while warmth speeds up the yeast's work.
4 ✓

Roll out, cut into rectangles, fill with jam, and roll up. Place tightly into a baking tray.

Tip: Arranging them tightly forces the buns to rise upwards during baking, keeping the sides soft.
5 ✓

Brush with milk and bake at 180°C (160°C Fan) for 20-25 minutes.

Tip: The sugars and proteins in the milk caramelise in the hot oven, giving the dough a beautiful shine and colour.

Recipe FAQ

Why didn't the dough rise?
Either the milk was too hot (killing the yeast) or the room was too cold. Yeast prefers a lukewarm environment of 25-30°C.
Why did the jam leak out?
The jam was too runny, or you didn't seal the dough tightly enough. Use bake-stable jam!
