Puff pastry bread, many people on the Internet also call it pineapple buns, but this "pineapple bun" does not contain pineapple ingredients. The pineapple buns in our local bakery have pineapple fillings. The ones without fillings are called meringue bread. The bakery used to buy meringue bread for 50 cents. Now the price has increased to 1.5 yuan or even 2 yuan. The volume is not as large as a decade ago. I miss the meringue bread I bought when I was a child. Because its top layer is sweet and crispy, even if there is no filling in the bread, it will feel delicious. I made this bread by myself for the first time. When I saw the big golden puff pastry coming out of the oven, I was so happy, and I was delighted. It turned out that the puff pastry bread I've always liked since I was a child came out of this way. I learned it, and it's great. When I opened one to Zai Zai, he refused to eat it. I took a bite in front of his eyes, crunchy, and enjoyed it beautifully, then peeled a small piece of pastry and stuffed it in his mouth, let him try , As a result, he wiped out two steamed buns for me at once, and he told me, "The bread Mommy made is so delicious~" Then I was puzzled, why didn't I ask you to eat it just now, because it didn't smell enough bread? Does the shop smell? Mommy’s DIY bread doesn’t contain flavor. A few minutes ago, I still refused to eat. After a few minutes, I asked me to leave it all for him. Now the children are really fickle, haha!"

Meringue Bread

1. Put all the ingredients except butter into the magic cloud bread machine and start the kneading program for 30 minutes.

2. After the first kneading, add the softened butter block, and then start the second kneading program for 15 minutes.

3. Then take it out and beat the dough for 10 minutes to pull out the beautiful glove film.

4. Put the shaped dough into the magic cloud bread machine, select the fermentation gear, for 60 minutes, and carry out the basic fermentation. After the first fermentation process is over, start the fermentation gear again for 30 minutes until the dough is twice as large as it is fermented.

5. Take out the dough, ventilate, knead it round, and cover with plastic wrap to proof it for about 15 minutes. Then divide into 12 portions, knead round, arrange in a baking tray, put in the oven for final fermentation, for about 1 hour.

6. Mix the ingredients of the puff pastry (1 egg yolk, 40g lard, 50g sugar, 75g low-gluten flour, 1g baking powder).

7. The meringue ingredients are divided into 12 portions.

8. Roll out into thin slices for later use.

9. Brush the fermented bread with a small amount of water, cover the rolled puff pastry on it, use a knife to mark the puff pastry, and brush with a small amount of egg yolk liquid.

10. Preheat the oven, heat 170 degrees, lower heat 160 degrees, middle layer, bake for 25 minutes, and bake until the skin is golden brown.

Tips:
1. Start making meringues when the dough is second to the final stage. The meringue materials can be mixed evenly, a little loose, but don't knead too much, so as not to affect the crispness.
2. When drawing the pattern, don't draw too deep, try to be evenly strong, and it will look good when it is baked.
3. The baking temperature and time are for reference only.
