• ~500 g bread flour

• 5 g active yeast
• 112 g warm water

• 400 g fresh blueberries
• 100 g granulated sugar
• 22 g lemon juice
• 3 g cornstarch
• 160 g heavy cream
• 22 g sugar
• A portion of homemade blueberry compote

1. 1Place fresh blueberries in a saucepan on a stove burner.
2. 2Pour 100 g granulated sugar and 22 g lemon juice over the blueberries in the saucepan.
3. 3Stir the blueberry mixture over heat, allowing the blueberries to break down and release juices, then add 3 g cornstarch and stir until thickened into a jam-like consistency.
4. 4Set the blueberry compote aside to cool completely.
5. 5Combine ~500 g bread flour, 3 g salt, 22 g granulated sugar, and 5 g active yeast in a large glass bowl and mix.
6. 6Pour 90 g warm milk and 112 g warm water into the dry mixture and stir until a shaggy dough forms.
7. 7Transfer the dough to a countertop, knead to bring it together, then add ~50 g softened butter slices and knead until the dough is smooth, elastic, and passes the windowpane test.
8. 8Place the kneaded dough in a lightly oiled bowl, shape into a ball, cover, and let it rise until doubled in size.
9. 9After the first rise, gently degas the dough on a lightly floured surface, then divide it into 12 equal portions and shape each into a smooth round ball.
10. 10Arrange the shaped dough balls in a 3x4 grid in a parchment-lined baking pan, cover, and let them rise again until they expand and nearly touch.
11. 11Sprinkle white powder generously over the proofed buns, then bake until light golden-brown and fluffy, and transfer to a cooling rack.
12. 12While buns cool, pour 160 g heavy cream into a bowl, add 22 g sugar and a portion of the cooled blueberry compote, then whip with an electric mixer until light, vibrant purple, and stiff peaks form.
13. 13Spoon the blueberry whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a tip, and fill the cooled buns with the cream.
