Preparation time
These times will help you plan your kitchen to fully enjoy your filled buns.
- Preparation: 20 minutes
- Cooking: 30 minutes
- Total: 50 minutes
- Servings: 20 units
- Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
For the dough
- 300 gr self-rising flour
- 50 gr of shortening (butter)
- 120 gr of grated cheese
- 200 ml milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg (for glazing)
- Cream cheese for filling, amount to taste
- Sesame seeds for decorating (Optional)
If you don't have self-rising flour, you can mix all-purpose flour with baking powder (1 teaspoon for every 100 grams of flour). Shortening can be replaced by butter in equal proportion.
Utensils we will use
- Large bowl for mixing
- Mixer or paddle for kneading
- Greased baking tray
- Brush for egg wash
- Cheese grater
- Oven or air fryer
- Cutting board and knife for cutting cream cheese
Preparation
1. Prepare the dough
- Mix dry ingredients and shortening: In the bowl, place the self-rising flour, salt, and grated cheese. Add the shortening and mix with your hands or a mixer until a sandy texture is achieved.
- Add the milk: Heat the milk until it is warm, not hot, and gradually pour it over the previous mixture while incorporating to form a homogeneous and compact dough. Avoid over-kneading so that the rolls do not become hard.
- Let the dough rest: Cover the bowl with a clean cloth and let it rest for 15 minutes so that the flour absorbs the moisture well and the dough relaxes.
2. Shape the buns
- Divide the dough: On a clean and lightly floured surface, form uniform-sized balls, about 30 grams each, to obtain about 20 rolls.
- Incorporate the cream cheese: With your hands, flatten each ball and place a teaspoon of cream cheese in the center. Close the dough covering all the filling and seal well so that it does not come out when baking.
- Place on the tray: Distribute the rolls on the tray previously greased with olive oil, leaving space between them.
3. Glaze and bake
- Prepare the egg: Lightly beat the egg and brush the surface of each roll with a brush to achieve a shiny golden color.
- Decorate with sesame seeds: If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds over the rolls to add extra texture and flavor.
- Bake or air fry: Preheat the oven to 180ºC and bake for 30 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown. If using an air fryer, cook at 160ºC for 15 minutes, preheating for 5 minutes at 180ºC beforehand.
To finish and serve
Let the rolls cool on a rack so that the humidity does not soften them excessively. You can serve them warm with a hot drink or as part of an appetizer. They are perfect accompanied by coffee or tea and also go very well with savory preparations to surprise at any gathering.
I want to share these tips with you
- Mind the milk temperature: It should be lukewarm; if it's too hot, it can kill the natural yeast in the self-rising flour and affect fermentation.
- Do not knead too much: Knead only until integrated, this way they will be soft and fluffy.
- Fill well and seal: The cream cheese must be well sealed to prevent it from spilling during baking and to ensure a creamy filling inside.
- Customize the filling: Try filling with cream cheese with jam and walnuts for a gourmet touch or combine with bacon for a saltier and more savory flavor.
- Use sesame seeds for decoration: Besides flavor, it makes the exterior texture more attractive and slightly crispy.
- Check the doneness: The rolls should brown evenly without burning to preserve that appetizing golden color.

5 keys to make your PanExpress Crema perfect
- Fresh ingredients: Use flour and fresh cheese for an authentic flavor and the desired texture.
- Room temperature: Keep the butter and cream cheese at room temperature to facilitate kneading and ensure the mixture is homogeneous.
- Sufficient rest: Don't ignore the dough's rest, it helps with the structure and makes it fluffy.
- Airtight seal: Before baking, make sure there are no gaps to prevent the filling from coming out.
- Control the oven: Every oven is different, monitor the baking to prevent the rolls from drying out or burning.

Recipe Ingredients:
- Preparation: 20 minutes
- Cooking: 15 minutes
- Total: 35 minutes
- Servings: 8-10 units
- Difficulty: Easy
- 250 gr strong flour
- 125 gr water
- 15 ml olive oil
- 12 gr fresh yeast
- 5 gr salt
- Sesame and poppy seeds for decorating
- Egg for brushing
- 80 gr grated cheese (Quescrem or Philadelphia type)
- 2 eggs
- Garlic powder to taste
- Chopped parsley
- 10 ml of liquid cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Prepare the dough: In a bowl, crumble the fresh yeast, add the strong flour, salt, water, and olive oil. Knead with a stand mixer or by hand for 15-20 minutes until a homogeneous and flexible dough is obtained. The dough should be elastic and not sticky.
- Ferment the dough: Form a ball with the dough and cover it with a cloth. Let it ferment in a warm place for 1 hour or until it doubles in volume. Proximity to a heat source favors fermentation, achieving greater volume and better texture.
- Shape the buns: After fermentation, gently roll out the dough and cut it into portions of about 35-40 grams each. Form balls with the portions and place them on a baking tray covered with parchment paper. Let them rest for another 30-40 minutes so they can rise again.
- Paint and decorate: Beat an egg and, with the help of a brush, paint the surface of each bun. Sprinkle sesame or poppy seeds for a golden and aromatic finish.
- Bake: Place the rolls in the preheated oven at 200°C and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until they acquire a delicate golden color. Remove them and let them cool for a few minutes before handling.
- Empty and fill: Cut the top off each bun, carefully remove its interior to form a hollow. Reserve the leftover bread for other preparations.
- Prepare the cheese filling: In a bowl, mix grated cheese, eggs, garlic powder, parsley, cream, salt, and pepper. Fill the rolls with this mixture using a teaspoon.
- Gratinate and serve: Return the stuffed rolls to the oven and gratinate for a few minutes until the cheese melts and the surface turns golden. Serve immediately to enjoy at its best.
- To obtain a dough with the ideal texture, make sure the yeast is active and that the dough rests in a warm place. Fermentation is key for a light and fluffy bread.
- Use a strong flour like Santa Clara or El Molino, which provide greater elasticity and volume to the dough.
- Before baking, the surface should be well brushed with egg to achieve a uniform golden and crispy finish.
- When hollowing out the inside of the bread, be careful not to perforate it to maintain the bread's structure and ensure the filling stays in place during gratinating.
- It is advisable to prepare the filling just before filling to maintain the creaminess of the cheese and the perfect texture of the cooked egg.
- Authenticity in flavor: Add a touch of aromatic herbs to the dough or filling, such as thyme or oregano, to enhance the aroma and flavor.
- Perfect texture: For a softer crumb, lightly moisten the surface before baking with a little beaten egg.
- Cheese freshness: Always opt for fresh, good quality cheeses, such as Philadelphia or La Villita, to ensure a creamy and flavorful filling.
- Freezer ready: You can prepare the rolls and freeze them without filling. Just fill and gratinate at the time of consumption, for an always fresh result.
- Appetizing presentation: Add seeds or fine herbs over the filling before gratinating, improving the appearance and final flavor.
- Nutritious breakfast: Perfect as a start to the day, accompanied by a cup of coffee or tea for an energetic breakfast.
- Comforting snack: Ideal in the afternoon to regain energy, accompanied by a light salad or fresh fruit.
- Family gatherings: As an appetizer at get-togethers with friends or family, providing flavor and ease of consumption.
