I'm just wondering why not just freeze without par-baking? I haven't tried freezing either way (with or without par-baking)....just curious. I usually just make buns the night before and place them in frig and let rise overnight, and bake in the morning. However, that method is not practical for making several batches. I'm going to try freezing some ahead of time...hmm what about freezing individual buns, so one could just use as many or as few as needed.
Why not, indeed? Last year's "FREEZE" log demonstrated this method; link to it from the end of this post. And yes, you could definitely freeze individual buns; let them rise in muffin tins for easiest handling. PJH
