Wow, this recipe sent me into an insane bread spiral and I donāt mean that in a bad way! Bread isnāt really something Iāve made much in a professional setting, obviously Iāve made brioche and other sweet breads occasionally but I havenāt dedicated much time to it. A few weeks ago I decided to start tinkering with a milk bread recipe, which turned into pumpkin bread and this quickly devolved into an obsession with not only making the dough but also experimenting with the best ways to use it. Honestly, there are a million ways you can use this dough, Iāve made cinnamon rolls, doughnuts, a classic āmilkā loaf and maritozzi, since I couldnāt choose a favourite Iām sharing the recipe for both pumpkin spiced latte maritozzi AND pumpkin glazed doughnuts.
First up, what are maritozzi? Maritozzi are sweet cream-filled buns that originate in Rome, classic maritozzi are made with a dough that is enriched with eggs and olive oil and flavoured with orange zest. Traditionally given to loved ones during lent, theyāre said to be the perfect place to hide a ring. These are definitely not traditional so if youāre a sensitive Italian, look away now.
