Cooking description:
You don't need to use yeast dough to bake delicious sweet buns. You can prepare wheat sourdough as a basis for the dough - baking on it turns out to be not only tasty, but also healthy. The main feature of these buns is the sugar filling and the sand crumbs, which, during baking, create a soft sweet crumb on the surface of the buns. You can shape the buns in a different way, as long as the sugar filling remains inside the roll during baking.
