How to Make Swedish Semla Buns (Semlor) Lent/Fat Tuesday/Pancake Day

Описание: In this video, I show you how to make Swedish semla (plural, semlor buns). Semla buns are eaten by Swedes around Lent, typically on Fat Tuesday/ Pancake day (depending on where you are from).

They are delicious cardamom buns filled with marzipan and whipped cream.

This recipe makes 6 buns and I adapted it from this fantastic recipe created by Bronte Aurell of the Scandinavian Kitchen: http://www.scandikitchen.co.uk/recipe...

Ingredients Used:

For the buns:
12g fresh yeast (or 6g active dry yeast)
40g melted butter
125ml whole milk
20g caster sugar
1 pinch salt
½ tsp baking powder
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tsp ground cardamom
Approximately 150-200g plain bread flour

For the filling:
50g Marzipan
A dash of milk
250ml whipping cream
1 tsp vanilla sugar or extract
Icing sugar to dust

Note: The original ScandiKitchen recipe also includes a dollop of custard or Crème Pâtissière. I simply chose not to include it because I'm not a fan.*
