Ingredient Benefits

Water
Acts as the foundation for hydrating the dough and activating the yeast. It also helps bind the dry ingredients and gives the buns their soft, chewy texture.

Fresh Yeast
The natural leavening agent that gives these buns their airy rise and subtle fermentation flavor. Fresh yeast also contributes to better digestibility and a tender crumb.

Coconut Sugar
Just a touch is enough to gently feed the yeast and balance the earthy flavors. Coconut sugar adds a hint of caramel-like sweetness and contains trace nutrients like potassium and iron.

Spelt Flour
An ancient grain known for its nutty flavor and digestibility. Spelt is rich in fiber, iron, and magnesium — and contains more protein than common wheat, making it a heartier, more nourishing base for baking.

Ground Flaxseed
A powerhouse of plant-based omega-3s, fiber, and lignans. Ground flax adds a slightly nutty taste, helps keep the buns moist, and boosts their nutritional value in a big way.

Fine Oats
Adds a rustic texture and visual charm, while also offering soluble fiber to support digestion. Oats make the buns more filling and lend a mild, toasty flavor when baked.
