Ingredients 

Bread dough

Streusel

  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 oz butter cold
  • 1 tbsp sugar

Egg wash

  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp milk

Filling

  • 4 oz strawberry jam

Instructions

Mixing and shaping bread dough

  • Combine all dry ingredients of a bread dough in a mixing bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook
  • At a slow speed, gradually add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until the dough comes together approximately 2 minutes. Make sure the melted butter is at room temperature.
  • While mixing, turn off the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl if necessary.
  • Increase the speed to medium and knead until the dough is smooth. Lightly pull away from the mixing dough. The dough is supposed to be a little bit wet.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured mixing bowl.
  • Use your fingertips and gently lift and fold the edge of the dough farthest from you toward the middle. Turn the bowl 45 degrees and fold again.
  • Repeat turning and folding the dough until it forms a smooth round ball, approximately 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Turn the dough seam side down, cover tightly, and let it proof until the size increases by almost half, approximately 1.5 to 2 hours.
  • When the dough is double in size, press it down to deflate.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface.
  • Divide the dough into 20 equal pieces (approximately 1.5 oz each). Work with 1 piece of dough at a time. Stretch the dough using your fingers and pinch the edges together at the bottom to form a smooth dough.
  • Place the dough seam side down (it'll be sticky, but don't add extra flour to the working surface). Use your hand (with the thumb wrapped around one side of the ball while the other fingers wrap the opposite side) and drag it in small circles until the dough is round and almost smooth.
  • Then, use a scraper to help transfer the round dough to the baking pan, seam side down.
  • Repeat the same steps with the rest of the dough.
  • Place the round doughs, seam side down, on a rimmed baking pan lined with parchment paper at least 1 inch apart. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let them rise until they increase by half, approximately 1 to 1.5 hours.

For streusel

  • In a small mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and rub together with your fingers until the mixture resembles wet sand. Set aside for later use. OR you can use a hand mixer to do this step.

For egg wash

  • In another mixing bowl, mix egg and milk together

Bake bread

  • When the bread dough is ready, lightly grease the bottom of a tablespoon with flour. Press the spoon firmly onto each dough ball to form a deep hole in the middle. Use a toothpick or a fork to prick little holes in the indentation.
  • Scoop jam filling onto each dough bread.
  • Then gently brush the edges with egg wash mixture.
  • Carefully sprinkle streusel on the edges; don't let them get into the filling.
  • Bake until the edges turn golden brown, approximately 20 - 25 minutes. Remember to rotate the baking pan halfway through the process.
