Ingredients

Scale

Dough Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp active dry yeast
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup warm plant-based milk
3 tbsp plant-based butter, softened

Filling Ingredients

1 cup plant-based cream cheese
1/2 cup fresh raspberries
1 tbsp rose water (natural flavoring)
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
1/4 tsp natural gelling agent

Instructions

Prepare the Dough: Combine warm plant-based milk, sugar, and active dry yeast in a bowl. Let sit 5-8 minutes until frothy. Sift flour and salt together. Gradually add the yeast mixture to the flour along with softened plant-based butter. Knead until smooth, soft, and elastic. Cover with a cloth and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until doubled in size.
Make the Raspberry Rose Cheesecake Filling: Blend plant-based cream cheese, fresh raspberries, rose water (natural flavoring), sugar, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and natural gelling agent until smooth and creamy. Refrigerate to let flavors meld and texture firm up.
Shape the Buns: Punch down risen dough gently and roll into a 12×12 inch square on a floured surface. Spread cheesecake filling evenly over dough. Roll tightly into a log and slice into 8-10 equal buns. Place buns on a parchment-lined tray. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
Bake to Perfection: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly brush buns with plant-based milk for a glossy finish. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Cool slightly before serving to allow filling to set.

Notes

Use fresh raspberries for the best flavor and texture.
Keep dough warm to help yeast activate and ensure a soft rise.
Do not overfill buns to avoid shaping and baking issues.
Buns are done when golden and springy to the touch.
Allow buns to cool slightly to let filling set for optimal flavor and texture.
