Baking has always been my cup of tea. And I would say that I love to bake breads and buns for my family and friends. With some leftover red bean paste in the refrigerator, I have decided to clear it up by making some of these beautiful red bean buns (or rolls). I am really happy with how they turned out and within minutes they were all gone. They were delicious!
Making buns using Overnight Sponge Dough Method from “Alex Goh’s Baking Code” actually gives the buns a very soft, springy and fine texture which I am really impressed. The bun is soft like a pillow that you can eat it on its own or with your favorite filling. I truly enjoy eating this bun especially when it is fresh from the oven. The lovely aroma that filled the house makes it difficult to resist. This red bean bun is definitely one of the best buns I have made so far. For the shape, I was inspired by Happy Home Baking.

Ham and Cheese Buns
Contributor: Ho Siew Loon I have always loved baking. One of my friends has asked me to bake something savoury for a change and Bee gave me an idea of coming out with buns wrapped in different types of filling and toppings. I decided to combine two sinfully good ingredients—ham and cheese. It was quite challenging to bake these ham and…
Pineapple Bun (Polo Bun/菠蘿包)
If you have been to Chinatown and have tried authentic Cantonese dim sum, you will probably know pineapple buns (boroh bun). Regardless of its name, there is no pineapple in the bun—it’s a soft bun with a sweet and crusty topping, which is extremely tasty when it’s freshly baked. I love pineapple buns and that’s why I asked my contributor…
Mexican Coffee Bun (Rotiboy)
I have long heard about the legendary Mexican coffee bun or Rotiboy, a made-in-Malaysia bun with a crusty coffee topping and butter filling. The word “Mexican” might be misleading but this bun originated from a bakery in Bukit Mertajam, Penang, and now Mexican coffee bun is famous all over Asia, with many bakeries and copycat bakeries selling this popular Mexican…
Spritz Cookies
I’ve been baking quite a bit lately, thanks to my new KitchenAid 7-Quart Stand Mixer (enter to win here) that my friend at KithenAid sent me. This past weekend, I baked a batch of spritz cookies using my favorite cookie recipe, and they were gone in no time. (Spritz cookies are basically butter cookies made with a cookie press.) These…

It’s bread flour.
wonder whether there is a typo error. You mentioned Put red bean dough in the middle and wrap it up. Do you mean red bean paste? Pls advise as I am confused. thanks
Yes, sorry for the typo.
Hi, I’m planning to make this tonight/tomorrow. However, I only have a hand-held mixer. Do you think I can still make this red bean bun? Thank you! :)
I made this using my hand-held mixer, although it’s really hard to mix the ingredients (took longer and I had to knead it in the end), the buns turned out still great! Thanks for your recipe :) It’s my first time making bread :)
Pingback:Sausage rolls « Chew On . . . .
Hi there,
I love the look of this recipe but have no clue whatsoever about the “100g Overnight Sponge Dough” that is used here.
I understand it is a method of preparation but is there a separate recipe for it?
Do you treat just 100g of the dough in this way then add it?
Unless I’m missing something, it’s a little unclear.
Thank you for any help
