Prepare the Dough:
Activate the Yeast (if needed):
In a small bowl, mix warm milk, 1 tsp yeast, and 1 tbsp sugar (from the 3 tbsp). Let sit for 5–10 minutes until frothy. Skip this step if using instant yeast.
Mix the Dough Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the egg, remaining sugar, and salt. Add the frothy yeast mixture (or instant yeast) and melted butter. Gradually add the flour while mixing until a soft dough forms.
Knead the Dough:
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
First Rise:
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place for 1–1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
Prepare the Cream Filling:
Mix Ingredients:
In a saucepan, whisk together the egg, sugar, and cornstarch (or flour) until smooth. Gradually whisk in the milk to avoid lumps.
Cook the Cream:
Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens into a creamy custard. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla sugar. Let cool completely before using.
Assemble the Bread:
Shape the Dough:
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into equal portions (8–10 pieces, depending on preference). Roll each piece into a ball and flatten slightly.
Fill with Cream:
Spoon a small amount of the cream filling into the center of each flattened dough ball. Pinch the edges together to seal, forming a smooth ball.
Second Rise:
Arrange the filled dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet or in a greased baking dish, seam-side down. Cover and let rise for 30–40 minutes.
