Making & Baking Swedish Style Blueberry Buns | Jamie Oliver

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil provides a dairy-free option with a similar texture.

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.

blueberries

🥗Healthier: mixed berries

💰Cheaper: frozen blueberries

Mixed berries add variety and frozen blueberries are often less expensive.

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients.

Mix warm milk and sugar in a bowl until dissolved.

Sprinkle yeast over the milk mixture and let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

Combine melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl.

Add the yeast mixture to the butter mixture and stir to combine.

Gradually add flour, salt, and ground cardamom, mixing until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Roll out the dough into a large rectangle and spread blueberries evenly over the surface.

Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into equal pieces.

Place the buns on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let rise for another 30 minutes.

Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

Mix powdered sugar with lemon zest and heavy cream to create a glaze.

Drizzle the glaze over the warm buns before serving.
