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.

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.
