Ingredients
Brioche Dough
• 1 ¼ cups whole milk
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon yeast
• 1 egg
• 1 stick (113g) butter
• 4 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons olive oil (for coating top and bottom of dough)
Cream Cheese Filling
• 12 oz cream cheese
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• ¼ cup sugar
• ¼ cup sour cream
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Peach Topping
• 3 peaches, divided
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• ¼ cup water
Instructions
Prepare the Peaches
Divide peaches into three portions.
In a saucepan, combine peaches with honey, cinnamon, and water.
Cook over medium heat for 5–6 minutes until softened.
Peel skins off and set aside.
Make the Brioche Dough
Warm the milk slightly and mix in sugar and yeast. Let it sit 5–10 minutes until frothy.
In a large bowl, combine yeast mixture with egg and butter. Gradually add flour, kneading until a smooth dough forms.
Lightly coat the dough with olive oil, cover, and let it rise until doubled in size.
Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling
Mix together cream cheese, egg, vanilla, sugar, sour cream, and lemon juice until smooth and creamy.
Assemble the Buns
Divide the dough into individual portions.
Flatten each portion and place a spoonful of cream cheese filling in the center.
Fold the dough over the filling and seal.
Place on a baking tray and top with the cooked peaches.
Bake
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake for 25–35 minutes, or until buns are golden and cooked through.
Cool & Serve
Let the buns cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm for the best flavor and texture.
Tips
Brush the tops with a little milk or egg wash before baking for a shiny, golden finish.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days, or freeze for longer storage.
You can add a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar or powdered sugar on top for extra sweetness.
