  • Traditional Swedish saffron buns, the best bun for Christmas! This is my favorite time of the year. I love the Christmas holidays and all the baking and sweet treats!
    You can also find the recipe on my blog here: fredriksfika.a...
    Swedish Saffron Buns for Lucia, 32 pieces
    1g saffron
    1 tsp caster sugar
    50g fresh yeast or 14g dry yeast
    500g milk
    180g caster sugar
    1 teaspoon salt
    200 g softened butter
    840-900 g all purpose flour
    Brushing:
    1 egg
    Raisin
    How to:
    1. Grind the saffron with the sugar. Warm the milk to 37 degrees Celsius or 98 degrees Fahrenheit and ad the saffron.
    2. Crumble the yeast in a bowl and ad the milk.
    3. Add sugar, salt, butter and almost all the flour. Save some for the kneeding after the first rise. Work the dough for 10 minutes.
    5. Cover the bowl and leave to rise for 30 minutes.
    6. Knead the dough lightly and divide it into 32 equal parts. Roll out each part and roll together as shown in the video.
    7. Place the buns on a sheet of baking paper and cover with a cloth and leave to rise for 30 minutes.
    8. Brush the buns with egg wash and put in raisins.
    9. Bake the buns at 220 Celsius or 430 Fahrenheit for 7-8 minutes.
    10. Let the buns cool on a wire rack under a cloth.
    Yeast: I use 50 g fresh yeast, it is mostly common in Sweden and we have it in all grocery stores. For dry yeast, that would be 14 grams with the kind we have in Sweden. If you are used to do bread or buns, use the same amount yeast that you would use for two cups of liquid. If you use dry yeast, you should heat the milk a couple of degrees warmer, 40 Celsius or 104 Fahrenheit.

    Thank you very much for posting content in both Swedish and English. Because of the Swedish videos, I am learning a few words in the language of my husband's farfar and farmor. And because of the English, we are learning some great new recipes, and are trying out fika. Tack!

    Do you think this dough could be made by mixing/kneeding by hand ? I’m an American living in SKorea and I would love to give this bread a try! Sadly no stand mixer 😅

    • @elenaruth9682
      @elenaruth9682 Před rokem

      Yes, I made this exact recipe and kneaded by hand for only 10 minutes until the dough became elastic and non-sticky to touch. They came out perfect.
