Japanese Melon Pan Recipe: Sweet Buns with Cookie Dough

Ah, melon pan. Sweet bread covered with a thin layer of cookie dough and covered with sugar. The first time I tried this was during our trip to Japan. Even though it’s called ”melon” bread, there is no melon flavor – the name simply refers to their cute melon shape!

Ever since my first bite, I knew I wanted to make something like this at home! So when I found Tara’s Recipes easy melon pan recipe, I just had to try it myself and show you the results! You can find the recipe on her Instagram page or TikTok account. But to make things a little easier for us Dutchies (I know some ingredients can’t be found here in The Netherlands), I also made a little overview with the ingredients that you can buy here. Happy baking!

As you may already know, I absolutely love everything sweet and sugary. Red velvet cake, chocolate chip cookies, milkshakes and ice cream: you’ve probably seen them all on my Instagram feed …multiple times haha! But what you probably don’t know about me, is the fact that I’m actually lactose intolerant. And that’s exactly what they put in those delicious cakes and milkshakes. Ugh! Luckily, there’s something for us peeps who can’t handle lactose that well: lactase caplets! Today I’m going to tell you guys a little bit more about the Disolact lactase caplets from Disolut.
