Description

Imagine biting into a warm, tender bun, its slightly golden surface giving way to a soft, yielding interior. These delightful pastries, reminiscent of traditional kolaches, offer a satisfyingly different way to start your day. The dough, carefully crafted to be lower in carbohydrates, possesses a subtle sweetness that complements the rich, creamy filling nestled within.

The heart of each bun is a luscious cream cheese, its smooth texture providing a delightful counterpoint to the slightly chewy dough. The cream cheese filling is not overly sweet, allowing its natural tang to shine through, creating a balanced and pleasing flavor profile. This creamy center melts delicately in your mouth, leaving a comforting warmth that lingers long after each bite.

But the true magic lies in the vibrant burst of flavor that awaits at the very core: a homemade blueberry chia jam. This jewel-toned jam, studded with tiny chia seeds, brings a delightful textural contrast to the smooth cream cheese. The blueberries, cooked down to a concentrated sweetness, offer a bright, fruity counterpoint to the richness of the cheese.

The chia seeds not only add a subtle crunch but also contribute to the jam's delightful thickness, ensuring it stays perfectly contained within the bun. These filled buns are more than just a breakfast treat; they are an experience. The combination of textures – the soft dough, the creamy filling, and the slightly chunky jam – creates a symphony in your mouth.

The interplay of flavors – the subtle sweetness of the dough, the tangy cream cheese, and the bright, fruity blueberries – is both comforting and invigorating. Perfect for a leisurely weekend brunch or a special weekday indulgence, these buns are sure to become a new favorite. The aroma alone, a blend of warm dough and sweet berries, is enough to entice you.

They are best enjoyed fresh from the oven, when the dough is at its softest and the filling is at its most luscious, but they are equally delicious enjoyed at room temperature. These buns offer a guilt-free way to savor a classic pastry, perfect for anyone looking to reduce their carbohydrate intake without sacrificing flavor or enjoyment. Each bite is a testament to the fact that healthy eating can be both delicious and satisfying.

Instructions

    1.
    To prepare the dough, add the butter and 1/4 cup of erythritol to a food processor and blend until creamy.
    2.
    Add two of the eggs and blend again until smooth and frothy.
    3.
    Add the ground almonds, flax, baking soda, lemon juice, vanilla extract and salt and blend until a dough forms.
    4.
    Remove the dough from the food processor, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
    5.
    Whilst the dough is chilling, add the remaining erythritol and the cream cheese to a food processor and blend until smooth.
    6.
    Preheat the oven to 320 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease a shallow oven tray.
    7.
    Remove the dough from the fridge and divide into four even balls, pressing down slightly into a bun shape. Use your thumb or the back of a teaspoon to create a well in the center of each bun.
    8.
    Divide the cream cheese mixture evenly between each bun.
    9.
    Divide the jam evenly between the four buns, topping the cheese.
    10.
    Whisk the remaining egg and brush liberally all over the dough.
    11.
    Transfer the glazed buns to the greased baking tray and bake for 22-25 minutes until golden brown all over and a skewer comes out clean.
