Saffron Bun Cake ("Saffransbutterkaka")

Saffron Bun Cake ("Saffransbutterkaka")

Saffron buns are a very important part of Swedish holidays; they’re most commonly baked for St. Lucia day on December 13th, but also for Christmas eve and day. Traditionally, they’re rolled into s-shaped buns and studded with raisins, but here I’ve filled them with a sugar-butter mixture, rolled the dough up like cinnamon buns, then baked the buns together in a springform pan.

Ingredients:
Dough
  • 1/2 tablespoon (½ gram) loosely packed saffron
  • 1/2 cup (99 grams) granulated white sugar, divided
  • 2 1/2 teaspoon (7 grams) instant yeast
  • 1 cup (250 grams) whole milk, at room temperature
  • 4 cup plus 2 ½ tablespoons (500 grams) bread flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 7 tablespoon (100 grams) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 teaspoon Diamond kosher crystal salt

Filling
  • 6 tablespoon (84 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 1/3 cup (66 grams) granulated white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • a pinch of kosher salt

To finish
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar, or as much as needed
