About this dish
Each piece stands cut side up in a muffin tin, so a dark spiral of black sesame shows across the top.

There is no croissant-style lamination: an enriched yeast dough kneaded with butter is spread with sesame paste and honey, rolled up and sliced.
Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Mix 260g bread flour, 30g sugar, 4g salt, and 4g dry yeast, then add 140ml warm milk and 1 egg.
Knead for 8 minutes until smooth, then gradually incorporate 50g unsalted butter, continuing to knead until elastic.
- 2
Cover the dough and proof in a warm place for 60 minutes until doubled.
Turn out onto a floured surface and roll out to a 3mm-thick rectangle.
- 3
Soften remaining 45g unsalted butter at room temperature and spread it thinly over the dough, then spread 70g black sesame paste and 18g honey evenly on top.
- 4
Roll the dough tightly from a long side to form a log, then cut it into 4 to 5cm pieces.
Stand each piece in a muffin cup with the cut spiral facing upward.
- 5
Cover the shaped cruffins and proof for 25 minutes.
Bake in an oven preheated to 190°C for 23 to 25 minutes until the surface is deep golden brown and crisp.
- 6
Unmold the cruffins immediately after removing from the oven.
Leaving them in the pan traps steam and softens the crisp exterior, so transfer to a wire rack right away to preserve the texture.
