How to make Buns Without Oven

Mix the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder) in a mixing bowl. Add the water and the oil and mix with a spatula. Massage the dough with your hands for a couple of minutes and flatten with a roller. Use a large cookie cutter to get medium-sized discs. Smear water on the edge of each disc (this will be to seal the discs). Add some hazelnut cream (like Nutella) to the center of each disc and place another disc on top. Close the edges well and cook over low heat. Flip to cook on both sides. Sprinkle with icing sugar to serve.

Tips for Sweet Buns Without Oven

– Don’t overmix the batter, this will remove all the air from the batter and your sweet buns won’t be as soft.

– Experiment with different fillings: jam, custard, or lemon curd will all work well.

– You can also top the sweet buns with crushed nuts.

Can I store and freeze Homemade Buns Without Oven?

The uncooked buns can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months. Place all the sealed sweet buns on a baking sheet and place on a baking sheet. Place in the freezer until they’re frozen. Then transfer to an airtight freezer-safe bag or container.

Instructions

Image

First mix your dry ingredients. In a medium mixing bowl, add flour, sugar, and baking powder.

Image

Add the water and oil.

Image

Use your hands to mix the wet and dry ingredients together until a dough forms.

Image

Knead the dough for a few minutes and then roll it out. Use a cookie cutter to get medium-sized circles.

Image

Smear water on the edge of each disc, this will be where the two discs seal together. Add some hazelnut cream to the center of each disc and place another disc on top.

Image

Add another disc on top of that one.

Image

Seal the edges well (use a fork if necessary).

Image

Add to a pan over medium heat.

Image

Cover and cook until browned.

Image

Carefully flip them over and cook the other side. Both sides should be browned and the buns should be cooked through.

Image

Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.

Notes

– If you want, you can also bake these Sweet Buns in the oven at 365°F (180°C) for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.

– Don’t make the pan too hot. Otherwise, the outside of the savory pancakes will burn while the cheese hasn’t warmed enough to melt yet. Keep it on medium heat.
