Thank you to reader Carissa for sending in a picture of her Brioche buns, she loves these so much and wanted to share the recipe with us.  This is what I love, recipes that people have tried and recommended, you know it’s got to be good!  If you have a favourite recipe you would love to share please email it through along with a photo.

Carissa made these buns in her Thermomix, but I have also shared a link to a regular recipe below.  She made these as a side for dinner, but they would also be great as rolls for the kids lunch boxes and make slightly larger rolls for hamburgers.

Do you make your own buns, what is your favourite recipe?
