Vanilla poppy seed buns with cottage cheese and blueberries - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use fresh blueberries instead of frozen in this recipe?

Yes, fresh blueberries work just as well! Just be gentle when folding the dough to prevent them from bursting.

What can I substitute for cottage cheese if I don't have any?

Ricotta cheese or cream cheese (softened) make great substitutes for cottage cheese in the filling.

How should I store leftover buns, and how long will they keep?

Store cooled buns in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. Reheat briefly in the oven for best texture.

Can I make these buns gluten-free?

Yes! Use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend and ensure your yeast is gluten-free. The texture may be slightly denser.

What's the best way to reheat these buns after storage?

Warm them in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5-7 minutes or until heated through. This helps maintain their texture better than microwaving.

Can I freeze these poppy seed buns for later?

Absolutely! Freeze cooled buns in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature and reheat in the oven.

How can I make these buns less sweet?

Reduce the cane sugar in both the dough and filling by half, or omit the vanilla sugar for a less sweet version.

Can I make these buns dairy-free?

Yes! Substitute plant-based milk for dairy milk, use dairy-free butter, and replace cottage cheese with tofu blended with lemon juice.

The first rest activates the yeast, while the second proofing allows the shaped buns to rise before baking for optimal texture.

What can I serve with these buns for a complete breakfast?

They pair wonderfully with Greek yogurt, fresh fruit, or a light omelet for a balanced morning meal.
