Tips & Tricks (5)
- Yeast Activation Magic 🧪Activate your dry yeast in warm (110°F) milk with a pinch of sugar to ensure maximum rise and fluffy texture in your morning buns.
- Butter Temperature Trick 🧈Use cold, cubed butter and work it into the dough quickly to create those signature flaky, layered pockets in your pumpkin morning buns.
- Spice Bloom Technique 🍂Toast your pumpkin pie spice in a dry pan for 30 seconds before adding to the recipe to intensify and deepen the warm, aromatic flavors.
- Make-Ahead Moisture Hack 🌅Prepare the dough the night before and do a slow, overnight rise in the refrigerator to develop richer flavor and more tender texture.
- Perfect Egg Wash Shine ✨Add a teaspoon of water to your egg wash and brush twice for a gorgeous, golden-brown, glossy finish on your morning buns.
