Gial Shirani I’ve been so Intimidated to make creole bun but you explain it in such a simple way I will try to this week. I don’t have enough butter so I need to run to the store but I will definitely make it. As I was watching I got so relaxed and sleepy. Love your calming voice and the nice lee music gial. You’re THE BEST BELIZEAN CHEF KZbinR OUT THERE. Love you hon. 🇧🇿♥️🙏🏼

[@CookingwithShirani]

Wow! Thank you so much, Elise. You are so sweet. I really appreciate that so much. It means a lot 🥰. I wish you all the best with your bun. You got this! Love you too, hon 🤗🇧🇿

Hey Shirani, I made 8 of these last Thursday, and their almost gone. I could not stop eating! It lovely having Kriol Bun because I haven't had it in so long. You recipe taste just like how they make it back home in Belize. Thank you and thank you again. ❤

[@CookingwithShirani]

You are so welcome. I love hearing that. I'm like you when I make these, I just can't stop eating them. Maybe if I make them more often, I wouldn't do that 😁. I'm so glad you enjoyed yours. Take care 🤗❤️

[@_blah]

@CookingwithShirani Thank you, and God bless you.

[@EliyshevaYAHsharal]

I have made plenty of buns before but never off a recipe I decided to look one up and I tried your recipe with the only exception of sieving my flour. But I wanted to say thank you for this lifetime recipe. They came out soft, spongy, and extremely tasteful.

[@CookingwithShirani]

You are very welcome! I'm so glad you like it. Thank you for trying it out 😊❤️

[@issmointx6320]

Oh how timely! Thanks for another great recipe. ❤️

[@CookingwithShirani]

You are very welcome Sheena! Hope you enjoy. Happy Easter 😊

[@ambergriskaye]

This looks so good. Can't wait to get in my new kitchen in 4 wks to start cooking and baking again. Fresh baked goods is one of my weaknesses.

[@CookingwithShirani]

Thank you so much! Omg! I'm excited for you 🤗. It's going to be good and especially since Fall is right around the corner. Something about baking in the colder months just puts me in a different mood. I wish you all the best with your new kitchen ❤

[@belizeanjem2557]

You're welcome Yolicia! Enjoy 🤗

[@yolandabrown4663]

Well shirani, I made these buns today and I’m so proud of how they turned out, thank you for sharing your recipes, I made some small changes as I didn’t have the vanilla I used pineapple flavouring instead and less sugar, I used stevia to help sweetened as I’m diabetic and can’t have too much sugar, oh I also made them curly instead of smooth, hope you don’t mind, just ate one with cheese and a chai tea it was so soft and yummy 😋

[@CookingwithShirani]

Well you are very welcome Aunty Landa. Wow! That's so cool that you are trying my recipe 😊😁. I like that you did your own little twist on them. They looked perfect. Hm now you're in trouble caz everybody wah want yuh mek fi dem lol. Love you ❤❤

Thank you so much. Hope you get to try them out 😊

[@amilcar2457]

What ?!?! All this time I thought blue bonnet was butter 🧈 Lmao thats how you know your real Belizean 😂😂😂 ❤️🇧🇿❤️

[@CookingwithShirani]

😂😂 Ikr it took me a while to learn that ❤🇧🇿❤

[@carolynh7915]

Sweet Sue! My mom said they couldn’t afford the butter😅. She also said she saw her aunt wash the margarine!? 😊 so cool how we met it to feed our families. Ty for sharing! ❤❤❤😊

[@CookingwithShirani]

You are so welcome Carolyn! Oh my goodness, but people still can't afford the butter now lol. It is so expensive 😫. Hmm I'm not sure how you wash margarine, I'm trying to picture it lol. Much love to you and your family 🤗❤

[@Queenc926]

Greetings Shirani! I’m so happy that I found your channel. My beloved mother used to make Easter bun for us every year and we haven’t had it since her passing eight years ago. None of us learned how to make it and we’ve always longed to have it. I’m going to try your recipe out tomorrow and if I’m successful I will be sending bun to each one my brothers so that they can enjoy and remember my mother. Thank you so much. I’ll let you know how they come out. Oh, I don’t have a kneading bowl, what can I use instead?

[@CookingwithShirani]

Hi Catherine! Aww, I'm so glad you found my channel. I know how that is when your family don't leave you with any recipes. If you don't have a kneading bowl you can just use a big basin to mix everything and then transfer it to your counter to knead it. Good luck with your bun. Hope you and your family enjoy 😚❤

[@kimaraavernon8014]

I'm going to try this out today,like u read my mind thanks very much Shirani 💖💖,can u plz make jamrolls nxt

[@CookingwithShirani]

You are so welcome Kimaraa! Hope you are enjoying your bun right now 😊. Yes, I'll put the jamrolls on my list. Take care 💖💖

Thank you!!

Looks delicious amiga

[@CookingwithShirani]

Thank you so much 😍

[@manuelalmendarez2232]

Great job.and thanks for tearing into it.its great that you quantify it with measurements ,which means you dont have to mess it up n then try to fix it and you have a more reliable recipe that wont be bricks at times.my mom n sister do it but they never use measurements and i am a measurement guy because of the reliability of them coming out constant and not having to guess and fix things.mom does great buns most of the times and they used to be a weekly thing but its just too much work n so mom does them on certain occasions n when she gets tired of everythingelse.

[@CookingwithShirani]

Thank you! Yes, having measurements is always a good thing. You know whatever you are making will come out good. I know most Belizeans don't use measurements for anything but have to pray it comes out good 😃

[@vanoy13]

Nice spicy sweet recipe . Great golden nails by the way. You're really shining

[@CookingwithShirani]

Thank you! Those golden nails were definitely different for me 😊

[@sawsanelfayoumi9084]

Very good

[@CookingwithShirani]

Thank you!

[@sherrilynyoung1270]

I am trying think of the last time I made bun! These looks so good 😍. BTW, what brand flour you use?

[@CookingwithShirani]

Thank you Sherrilyn 🤗. You have to make some soon. I haven't made bun in a while too and I forgot how much I like them 😁. The flour I use is the store brand. It's Kroger brand.

[@eddisonbanner9505]

I 12 hours late🤫. Nice creole bun. Thanks for the clarity about the difference between margarine and real butter. We do have real better here now but da $9 a pound. You know we wa stick to the margarine because as you said we know that as butter.

[@CookingwithShirani]

Thank you! Yes u think seh I nuh di notice you late nuh 😅. Da lie, no worries. I know everybody have busy lives. Whoa! $9 is expensive for Belize. Good to know them have the real thing though.

Mmmmm look delicious anutie shir

[@CookingwithShirani]

Aww, thank you baby 🤩💖

[@SMKajee]

Hi again Shirani. I could definitely bring the cheese all the way from Southern Africa and we could have your buns with your lemonade as well. 😂 Shirani, can i do everything as you here but subtract the nutmeg? Should i replace it with something else? Stay blessed dear. ❤

[@CookingwithShirani]

Haha, yes I would love it if you bring the cheese 😂❤️. You can subtract the nutmeg and make up for it with more cinnamon. Add an extra teaspoon of cinnamon.

[@SMKajee]

@CookingwithShirani Hi again, Shirani. Who knows, maybe one day. God's plan is amazing, after all. Stay blessed, dear 🙏

Big Like 2Yummy recipe to prepare these Belizean Creole Buns. I like the nice brown colour and the the buns must be so fluffy and soft. Well DONE Keep SHARING See you AROUND

[@CookingwithShirani]

Thanks a lot! I appreciate that. I do too, I like the colour. Hope you get to try them out 😊

[@chriscastillo54]

What part of the over to bun bun or bread to bake top ,middle or bottom?

[@CookingwithShirani]

The top of the oven but you need to put it on broil. Keep an eye on it because it will burn quick.

[@mayflowers5362]

Yes we do have butter , remember the creamy butter in the blue can .

[@CookingwithShirani]

Oh yeah I forgot about that. I was thinking stick butta 😀

[@blue12night2]

Hello Shirani, how do you prepare your pan for the bun to bake it?❤

[@CookingwithShirani]

Hello ❤️ I used margarine because that's what I was using in this recipe. You can use shortening if you don't have that.

[@blue12night2]

@@CookingwithShirani Thank you!! My mom is making Bun and Fish for Good Friday and was watching your recipe. I’ll let her know❤️

[@Nisa_Young]

When happen to chef Pablo channel ??

[@CookingwithShirani]

I have no idea. I have not heard from him.

[@verniciavernon4538]

Can I use this same recipe for the cross buns?

[@CookingwithShirani]

You can if you want to but I do have a different recipe for cross buns. Here is the link for you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6Tcn32Xf5Z1jrs

[@midnitebaby30]

Where did you get that bowl that you kneading in

[@CookingwithShirani]

I brought it back from Belize many many years ago.

[@applegee9777]

Can this be made with wheat flour?

[@CookingwithShirani]

I've never done it, but I'm sure you can use wheat flour. You'll probably need to add more liquid.

[@debbieskitchen2]

Hi sweet girl. I will check Chef Pablo channel out. I bet your Creole Buns are amazing.. looks good.

Hi Debbie! Thank you so much for always stopping by. I appreciate that 🙏❤. Yes please check out his channel.

Why did I use 1 tbs of salt instead of tsp? 😢 I’m afraid my bun will be salty

[@CookingwithShirani]

Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that. Were you able to eat it?

Well if you dont want to eat them send them to barbados i will eat them for you😅😅😃

[@CookingwithShirani]

I'll bring them to you in Barbados and we can eat them together 😅😅

[@eldagutierrez8475]

I use Creamery butter. I don't use margarine for anything in my kitchen. Margarine is not butter.

[@eldagutierrez8475]

Thank you Shiranny. I follow your recipes.

[@CookingwithShirani]

Aww, so happy to hear that ❤

[@neldamccoy4553]

You dont.make soda cake

[@CookingwithShirani]

I'm sorry, I'm not sure which one you are asking about.

[@FatgirlMickey]

If u knew what was in margarine u would buy butter. Margine is nothing but chemicals and flavorings mixed together. Butter is made from the cow.
