Preparation

• 1 Prep the oven Heat oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a tray with baking paper. 🔥
• 2 Cut the buns Slice each bun into 6 wedges, cutting almost through but keeping the base intact so it opens like a flower. 🥖
• 3 Whip the filling Mix cream cheese, honey or syrup, salt, and optional lemon juice until smooth and pipeable. 🧀
• 4 Fill the bread Pipe or spoon cream cheese into every cut, aiming for even gaps so every bite gets filling. ✨
• 5 Make the garlic soak Whisk melted butter, eggs, milk, garlic, salt, and parsley until glossy and fully combined. 🧄
• 6 Soak carefully Spoon the garlic mixture over each bun, letting it drip into the cuts without flooding the tray. 🧈
• 7 Bake Bake 12 min at 180°C (350°F) until the tops look glossy and the edges are lightly golden. ⏳
• 8 Rest and serve Rest 3 min, then serve warm while the bread is plush and the garlic butter is aromatic. 🥖
