      Pour the dough onto the work surface and shape it into about 12 round buns. Preheat the oven to 250 °C.

      Brush with egg and bake in the center of the oven for about 7–9 minutes.

      Let the buns cool before turning them into semlor.

      Cut off the tops and scoop out the insides. Fill the semlor with almond paste, then top with a dollop of whipped cream. Replace the tops and dust with powdered sugar.
