30 minutes
Chester buns are tender, airy, and sweet baked goods with a subtle creamy flavor. Their recipe is rooted in European baking traditions, where special attention is given to texture and ingredient balance. Condensed milk adds softness to the buns, while the sugar glaze gives them a pleasant sweetness. Baked to a golden crust, they pair perfectly with morning coffee or tea on a cozy evening. These buns can be served as a standalone treat or used as a base for dessert sandwiches. Their aroma evokes associations with home comfort and warmth, while the softness of the dough makes them truly unforgettable. Try them fresh and warm to experience their full flavor.
