- Gradually add the lightly beaten egg white – just enough for the mixture to become sticky.1 egg white
- To make my work easier, I transferred the almond mixture to a strong piping bag, cut off a corner, and squeezed the mixture onto the dough this way.
- Place the almond filling in the center of the dough and roll the dough into a log (I cut one side of the dough to a length of about 3 cm and rolled the dough from the smooth edge towards the cut side, so the tops of the buns were slightly cut) – I added a phone photo of the preparations below the recipe.
- Arrange the buns on a large baking sheet, cover with a cloth, and set aside for 30 minutes to rise.
- Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius (fan mode or 180 degrees Celsius top/bottom mode).

Almond Yeast Buns – notes
This recipe for almond yeast buns caught my eye in Nigella Lawson’s book “How to Be a Domestic Goddess”.
Recently, I started browsing it again looking for inspiration, and many recipes caught my interest.
As a lifelong admirer of yeast cakes, I was tempted by the almond buns.
I prepared the yeast dough and started on the almond paste for the buns.
How to make almond filling for buns?
The best and quickest way is to use ground almonds here.
Then just mix them with powdered sugar, a little soft butter, and egg white.
If you don’t have ground almonds, then blend whole almonds (preferably blanched) together with powdered sugar until fine.
Then add butter and egg white.
It’s good to lightly whisk the egg white with a fork beforehand – it will be easier to add it in portions (add only enough for the mixture to stick together).
This recipe makes 6 yeast buns, but they are large almond yeast buns.
One has a lot of calories (no surprise there), but since they are so big, you can eat half ;)
At the very bottom (under the recipe) I’ve included a photo from the preparation, and you can see that each bun gets a generous amount of filling.
I think you can easily make more dough and share the filling among more buns :)
