Thanks for sharing much appreciated. Matthews I am wondering if you can get the recipes for white eye almost like the buns. Bruck mouth, it was cut in rectangles and another similar to bruck mouth but was dark brown in color and rectangle too. These were delicious with lemonade, I loved them all ...white eye, bruck mouth and the dark color. Thanks

Hi Mathews did you squeeze out the milk from the coconut before adding it to the flour

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

No. Dont do that or the buns will be really dry.

[@mirandawalcott8450]

Great recipe..I did not see u add egg..so will this change the texture if I add an egg? Thanks

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

I don’t add any eggs. You can add one. I don’t feel like there is a big difference

[@wanlingloh6634]

Hi, can I use self raising flour and do I need to add baking powder? Thank you for your reply

Hello i just use your recipe and it was the best buns I ever make but the only thing I add extra was milk powder... next time try it with a cup of milk powder you will love it .

Can I use “cream Of coconut “ (Goya) to use as a coconut supplement?

Nope. You need coconut shreds in it. You can use packaged shredded coconut and then use coconut milk to mix it
