Sweet corn buns recipe

Sweet corn buns

Soft buns prepared with sweet corn topping. Little cheese adds a delicious twist to the taste. Full video, step by step detailed post.
Last year saw sweet corn stuffed buns in a restaurant menu here in Singapore, since then wanted to try sweet corn stuffed buns. But it took this long for me as I have stopped buying sweet corn off late. Somehow craved for sweet corn and got some frozen corn. After making sweet corn sandwich, I thought I should make buns before the corn gets over. So made this bun more like with sweet corn topping than stuffing. I used my basic dough I usually make pizza/ buns. It turned out really good and we all enjoyed it a lot.

Sweet corn buns recipe

Ingredients

All purpose flour/ Maida – 1 & 1/2 cups
Instant yeast – 1 tsp, heaped
Milk – 1/4 cup
Water – 1/4 cup + needed
Butter – 3 tbsp
Salt – 3/4 tsp
Sugar – 1 tbsp
Sweet corn (Frozen) – 1 & 1/2 cup
Capsicum – 3 tbsp
Birds eye chilli/ Red ripe chilli – 1
Italian herbs – 1/4 tsp
Mozzarella cheese – 1/4 cup
Butter – 2 tsp
Milk & Butter for brushing

Method:

  1. Take all purpose flour in a mixing bowl. Add sugar, salt, yeast to the flour and mix well.
  2. Add lukewarm water plus water, mix well. The dough should be loose and sticky side for softer results.
  3. 3 tbsp butter goes in and knead well for 10 mins.
  4. Oil the surface and cover with cling wrap or damp cloth. Keep aside for rising for an hour, so that the dough volume doubles.
  5. Punch down once its risen fully. Knead again for 5 mins to smooth.
  6. Divide into 6 equal sized balls. Dust with flour if it is too sticky to handle.
  7. Shape to smooth balls by tucking in at the bottom. Refer video for easy understanding.
  8. Use a spatula to make a dent in the middle lengthwise. Keep aside covered for second rise for 10 mins.
  9. Preheat oven at 190 deg C. Steam cook sweet corn with salt for 10 mins or until done.
  10. Take cooked corn, chopped capsicum, very finely chopped red ripe chilli, italian herbs in a mixing bowl and mix 2 tsp butter with it.
  11. After 10 mins, brush the buns with milk generously (milk wash) Now spread 2 spoons of prepared corn mixture over the buns. 
  12. Bake for 12 mins. Take out and sprinkle little cheese over each bun.
  13. Bake again for 5 mins. Brush with butter generously once done.

Notes

  • I have added cheese on the top towards ending to keep the corn intact. Otherwise it may fall apart. In case if you are wondering why not mix with the corn, I wanted very less cheese, so sprinkle little over the top towards end of baking.
  • I forgot milk wash in step 11 before topping. So in the video you will see me giving milk wash after topping the buns.
  • Red ripe chillis or birds eye chilli adds a spicy twist to the topping. You can replace it with red chilli flakes or black pepper too.
  • You can use mayonnaise as I saw in this video and skip cheese fully in the recipe. In that case just mix mayo with corn before topping and bake continuously.
  • The dough should be on sticky side to achieve soft buns, you can use flour to dust while handling.
