Well I finally made these using coconut milk powder for the dry milk and lime oil instead of lemon oil. They were fantastic! I made them slightly smaller, in the knot shape, and got 24 buns. They were such a hit at the barbecue there were only two left this morning for the kids to have for breakfast. They also complemented my black bean soup quite nicely. I will definitely make them this way again. I am thinking middle of winter I might try with the orange oil or fiori di sicilia and sprinkle them with sparkling sugar mixed with cloves and nutmeg. I love this recipe! The dough is so soft and easy to work with, and everyone always raves about the results. My son was so disappointed that they were gone he asked me to make more today!
Lish, I like your idea about the fiori and spices and sparkling sugar... Sounds perfect for cooler weather and the holidays. PJH
