Melon Pan is a Japanese sweet bread. Here I flavored it with cardamom and chocolate chunks.
The Crust Dough:
- 100 gr flour
- 40 gr softened butter
- 30 gr brown sugar
- 30 gr egg
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
In a large bowl, cream the brown sugar with the butter. Then add the egg and beat until homogeneous.
Add the flour and the baking powder, mix to combine. Do no over mix.
Wrap this dough in plastic film and reserve in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
The Sweet Bread Dough :
- 150 gr flour
- 60 gr milk
- 30 gr egg
- 15 gr sugar
- 3 gr salt
- 6 gr fresh yeast
- 1/2 tsp powdered cardamom
- 30 gr chocolate chunks
- 40 gr softened butter
In a large bowl, gather the flour, sugar, salt, yeast and cardamom. Add the milk and egg, then knead for 5 minutes...
Add the softened butter and knead again for about 10 minutes. Then combine the chocolate chunks. Allow to rise at room temperature for 1 hour. After that, punch the dough and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
Assembly & Baking :
Remove the sweet bread dough and the crust dough from the fridge. Cut each one in 6 equal pieces. Form balls.
Between 2 plastic film sheets, roll out the crust dough 2 mm thick...
...then wrap the sweet bread dough with it.
Apply a thin layer of sugar on the surface.
And make some scores with a knife or a pastry scraper. Allow to rise again at room temperature for 1 hour or more (according the temperature).
After 1 hour...
Put in preheated oven (medim heat) for about 15 minutes.
Crunchy outside and soft inside, awesome !
