As a chef who lives for that golden moment when freshly baked bread comes out of the oven, these milk buns never fail me. They’re soft, cloud light, and rich with a subtle buttery aroma that fills the entire kitchen. If you love bread that’s slightly sweet, delicately golden on the outside, and tear apart tender inside this is your next favorite recipe.
