Spanish Bread is a favorite 'merienda' or afternoon snack in the Philippines that can be found in many local bakeries. You can also make your own and it is easy. We also found a way to keep that sweet buttery filling from oozing out. So you enjoy the full deliciousness of it without wasting any.

What is Filipino Spanish Bread?

Firstly, it has nothing to do with the Spanish bread of Spain (Pan de Horno). Except maybe that they share the same form (rolled) but the Filipino version of Spanish bread has something special. It has a sweet buttery filling.

It is a yeasted bread that is rolled into a log enclosing within a sugary and buttery filling. They are then rolled in breadcrumbs before baking.  It is very common to find them in 'panaderia' or local bakeries. Normally enjoyed as an afternoon snack.

Making the bread itself was no biggie. I read a lot of different recipes for Spanish bread and they all have the same ingredient for the bread, which is similar to Pandesal, so I just used my own recipe for that.

Trying several recipes

The challenge for me was making the perfect filling. It took me four batches to finally get the filling right. That is, at least, my idea of what a Spanish bread filling should be. Sweet— but not overly sweet; buttery with a bit of a texture to it, and it should be moist.

The first batch, I followed what most recipe online uses for a filling: simply mixing butter, sugar, and bread crumbs together and spreading it to the dough before baking. I am not sure if it is the kind of breadcrumbs I used, because they turned out having a dry filling. The other problem is that most of the butter oozed out into the pan while baking. This seems to be a common problem with all the online recipes I found after I read the comments.

The second batch was almost the same, only with different measurements plus it adds powdered milk to it. The taste was good though.

With my third batch, I only used butter and brown sugar. I also smeared some butter on the center of the dough before adding the filling mixture. The outcome...slightly moist filling but there was no texture at all. Just a sticky syrup that also dries out once the Spanish bread gets cold. I recommend this recipe if you are eating them immediately after baking.

The perfect filling that stays inside

So after squeezing my brains out for some ideas, I decided to make an experiment. I cooked the filling!!!

Yup, I cooked the filling before spreading it to the dough of my Spanish bread! It is an additional step you will not find in any of the other recipes online. Believe me I read them all or at least those that are available at the time when I originally made this post in 2017. But, it was a necessary step to have a moist, textured, no-oozing-while-baking filling! I can see some have read my post and copied this step, which only means it really works.

The filling was brownish, not yellowish like ones I see on bakeries back home. I reckon that it is from using brown sugar and butter instead of white sugar and margarine that is normally used in bakeries. But I like the warm taste with a hint of caramel from brown sugar.

Ingredients
 

FOR DOUGH

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons instant yeast - see NOTE 1
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¾ - 1 cup lukewarm milk - see NOTE 2
  • 3 tablespoons butter - or margarine, melted
  • 1 egg

FOR FILLING

  • ¼ cup butter
  • ½ cup bread crumbs
  • 2 teaspoons flour
  • ⅛ cup water or milk - or more see NOTE 3
  • ½ cup brown sugar /white sugar
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • butter - for brushing

FOR BREADING

  • 2 tablespoons milk - or water
  • ½ cup bread crumbs

Instructions
 

  • In a big bowl, mix together flour, sugar, and salt. Pour in lukewarm milk, melted butter, and beaten egg. Mix until well blended. Add the instant yeast and mix well to form a slighly sticky dough.
  • Tip the dough on a surface greased with oil. Knead the dough with lightly oiled hands until it becomes smooth and elastic, about 10-12 minutes.
  • Form the dough into a ball and place the dough in a greased bowl. Cover with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and place it in a warm area and let it rise until it doubled in size. Depending on how warm it is, could take 30 minutes to an hour or even longer.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the filling. In a saucepan over medium-low heat, melt butter until bubbly. Add the ¼ cup bread crumbs and mix well. Add flour, water or milk, sugar, salt and rest of breadcrumbs. Cook until it gets thick. Remove from heat and continue stirring until it forms a thick paste-like texture.
  • Punch down the dough and divide into 16 equal parts using a knife of dough slicer. Roll each piece into a long triangle (like a pizza slice). Brush the middle part with butter or margarine then spread filling on the surface leaving about a centimeter around the edges unfilled. Roll the dough starting from the wider end towards the smaller end enclosing the filling.
  • Brush each rolled dough with milk or water then roll it on a plate of breadcrumbs and place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper: make sure that the end part sits at the bottom so it won't open up while baking. Cover with cloth or kitchen towel or cling wrap and let them rise for another 20-30 minutes or until they doubled in size. Remove cover before baking.
  • Place the baking sheet on the middle rack and bake at 150°C (300°F) for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the Spanish bread from the oven and transfer to a bread basket. Enjoy while still warm.

Notes

  • NOTE 1: You may also use active dry yeast but it needs to be proofed first by dissolving it in ½ cup lukewarm water or, in this case, in the milk with a tablespoon sugar (taken from the ingredients for dough).
  • NOTE 2: Some flour, though the same type, may absorb water more than others. Start with ¾ cup water and add more up to 1 cup if the dough is too dry. The dough should be a little sticky that will result in moist and soft bread.
  • NOTE 3: Some breadcrumbs absorb more liquid than others. In this case, you may need to add more liquid if you notice that the filling is getting too crumbly while cooking.

    thank you.

      I normally use aluminum baking sheets as they conduct heat well. But I am thinking that the glass pan was not the culprit. I am guessing that you used gas oven because of the burnt bottom. Just add an additional baking/cookie sheet below and it should help.

      In making bread I normally use fresh milk. To cut the rising time you can add more yeast but it may taste a little yeasty. Try also putting the bowl of dough in a warm(not hot) oven.

        You can, Janice and just use the whole egg. But you can also freeze the dough after kneading or shaping. Then defrost overnight in the fridge and bring to room temperature and let it rise before baking.

      Like pandesal, Spanish bread normally will start to dry out the next day. Try placing it in an airtight container and it might.

    Hi. This is the best spanish bread recipe that I tried. Thank you for sharing.

    How do I adjust the amounts of the ingredients if I wanna double up? Coz I see some recipes that would yield to double the amount but the butter, salt and other ingredients didn’t necessarily doubled in amount.

    Thank you.

    • Bebs says

      June 09, 2020 at 12:37 am

      Simply double the recipe except for the yeast. Use the same amount. The reason is that it might rise too fast and you are not yet finished with rolling and shaping them. Overproofed dough can deflate easily. With lesser yeast, it may take longer to rise but will give you time to shape the rest. You can also refrigerate half of the dough so it can rise slowly.

          Yes, you can and if it gets too thick you can add more hot water or milk to make it spreadable again. Actually, you can make the whole thing a day ahead and once the buns are formed in a baking sheet just cover the whole sheet with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight, then bring it out to bake the next day.

    Hi,

    Can I make the dough the night before? Do everything as stated in the instructions, but to leave it overnight before baking? I am planning to bake them early in the morning, but don’t want to get up extra early to do all the steps lol thank you!

    Btw, this is my 4th time making these using your recipe! Always a hit with my kids!

    Hi,

    Ang sarap ng finished product pero it turned out to be a little pale? It was on the middle rack but still, I didn’t achieve the color I wanted. Thanks.

      Hi Joan, you just bake it a little longer if you want it more brown.

        Do I need to put it to room temperature before baking if I let it rise overnight in the fridge?

      It could be that the oven is not that hot, you can simply let it cook longer until it browns a bit.

    1st time to do baking. I did this spanish bread recipe of yours. It’s easy and it’s so good. My family loves it. The filling is just right, not bland and not too sweet. The dough was soft and so yummy. We really loved it. Thank you for the recipe.👍😊❤️

    This was my second attempt to making Spanish rolls, and this time with this recipe. I gotta say that’s it amazing! Although I think there’s something wrong with my oven because i had to bake it for 10 more min. Nonetheless, it was delicious, thank you!

    Hello i am new to baking 🙁

    Does the instructions vary if I am going to use a stand up lift mixer? If so please advise id hate to ruin a good batch of Spanish bread.

      Same instruction, Eddie. Use medium speed to knead and check starting at 5 minutes if the dough is ready. Do the windowpane test.

    Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe. I made it today and it’s delicious. I changed the filling on my since I didn’t have any breadcrumbs. I used a fine macaroon coconut unsweetened and used extra fine cornmeal for dusting. It turned out very good. Thanks again.
