For the brioche dough:
For decoration:
These adorable Easter bunny brioche buns are a delightful addition to your Easter table. Made with soft, buttery yeast dough, Gellwe Cream Flavour Pudding Mix and a hint of lemon, they're wonderfully fluffy and delicately fragrant. Shaped into cute little bunnies and decorated with sweet faces, they're perfect for Easter breakfast, family gatherings or baking with children.
Place the flour, yeast, sugar, pudding powder and salt in a mixing bowl.
Add the warm milk, eggs, softened butter and Gellwe Lemon Flavouring.
Knead by hand or using a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook for approximately 10 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Cover the dough and leave to rise in a warm place for approximately 1½ hours, or until doubled in size.
Divide the risen dough into 10 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball to form the bunny's head. Take a small piece of dough, shape it into two thin ropes and attach them to the head to create the ears.
Arrange the shaped bunnies on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Cover and leave to rise for approximately 30 minutes.
Beat the egg with the milk and brush the mixture over the bunnies. Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C (conventional top and bottom heat) for approximately 15 minutes, until golden brown.
Once completely cooled, use an edible decorating pen to draw the eyes, nose and mouth.
