Ingredients
  

Dough Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups all purpose / cake flour
  • 1 teaspoon instant dry yeast
  • 1 Tablespoon white granulated or castor sugar
  • ⅓ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup warm water
  • 1 Tablespoon milk
  • 1 Tablespoon canola or sunflower oil

Instructions
 

Making the Dough

  • Combine the instant dry yeast, sugar, salt, and flour in a large bowl.
  • Mix together the warm water, milk, and oil in a saucepan or measuring jug and add it to the flour mixture.
  • Knead for 5 minutes, until it forms a smooth, soft dough.
  • Cover and leave to rise for an hour in a warm, draft-free area of your kitchen.

Filling and Cooking the Custard Buns

  • After the dough has risen, punch it down and knead for 3 minutes.
  • Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and roll out each piece into a circle.
  • Place a teaspoon of the cooled custard on half of the circle and fold the other half over to cover. Press and seal the edges well and leave to rest for 15 minutes.
  • Heat a non-stick pan on low heat and gently place the custard cream buns into the pan.
  • Cook on low heat for 10 minutes then flip and cook the other side for 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the pan, allow to cool for a few minutes before serving, and dust with powdered sugar if preferred.

Notes

You can use homemade custard powder or store-bought custard according to your preference.
