Method
- In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, and yeast.
- Add the cold cubed butter and mix until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together warm milk, egg, and a little water to activate the yeast.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture and knead until a smooth dough forms.
- Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
- Divide the dough into small portions, roll each into a ball, and flatten into a disk.
- Add a spoonful of custard filling to each disk, fold the dough over, and shape into a bun.
- Place on a baking sheet, let them rise again for 30 minutes, and brush with the egg yolk glaze.
- Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
