Rotiboy (coffee bun)_Natural yeast 天然酵母_咖啡墨西哥包

Rotiboy coffee bun is my little boy's favourite bread. So i try to replicate this bun using natural yeast from sourdough starter. Anyway, i also provide you recipe using instant yeast method if you don't have natural yeast, but you need to adjust the water portion. Also i will update this recipe on my new FB page which i work together with another sourdough buddy. Feel free to visit my FB page : SEED Artisan Bakers , as we will share more sourdough tips and recipes in this page.




Love this sweet bun recipe as it yield very moist and soft bun.

Anyway, my boy asked me to increase sugar for the crispy coffee crust as he prefer sweeter version. So you may want to adjust the sugar amount if you prefer sweeter version.

  1. Hi Sonia, I am Irene and I love looking at your post. My kids loved coffee bread too and I was also trying out sourdough starter in my bread making. May I know if this bread have a sourish taste due to the starter and will the bread be a bit dry. My soft bread that I have tried using sourdough starter always turned out a bit sourish and dry. Appreciate your advice. Tks.

  2. Hi Sonia. I'm wondering why you're using cake flour in bread recipe? Will the outcome be more fluffy and softer? Thanks
