Buns with rhubarb compote


Sometime ago I found this recipe on buns with rhubarb compote on a blog. I have been storing this recipe for, and suddenly they fitted perfect into my rhubarb theme for the recent birthday coffee.

Inside of making a fast raising of the bun dough it fitted better into my time frame to make this bun dough using cold raising letting the dough stand night over, actually 12-16 hours. Therefore I reduced the yeast amount significantly from 50 g fresh yeast to 10 g yeast. Do the dough raising according to what fits your calender the best.

The way that these buns are made reminds me very much about the Shrovetide buns, which we Danes eat in February.
