Incredibly airy yeast dough, creamy quark custard filling and fruity pieces of mandarin are combined in these sweet pastries. They taste more delicious than from the bakery and are easy to make. Enjoy them for breakfast or dessert with a cup of coffee or tea. You can find a detailed quark custard buns recipe with the exact quantities and step-by-step instructions below.
Better than from the bakery
These German quark custard buns with mandarins, just like the homemade crumble buns with custard filling, pudding pretzel, custard cherry hand pies, Franzbrötchen or croissants, are much more delicious than those from the bakery. They taste really fresh, soft and juicy.
They also contain no undesirable additives. The quality of the ingredients you use for the pastries is up to you.
After all, it is very easy to make the quark custardg pastries, just like the maritozzi or the wasp nest buns. You will need ordinary ingredients that you may already have at home.
Prepare the filling
The filling for these buns consists of vanilla custard and quark. However, you don’t need instant custard powder for it, as you don’t need it for the cherry custard pie or the crepe cake with pudding cream. I made the custard myself with cornstarch, milk and egg yolk.
With or without fruits
You can top the quark custard pastries with more than just canned mandarins. Canned peaches or apricots are also suitable, just like for the fried egg cake or the peaches cream cake. Cut larger fruits into pieces and press them lightly into the filling.
But the quark custard pastries also taste delicious without fruits. You can top them with fresh berries after baking, similar to the strawberry roll cake.
Store correctly
The quark custard buns with mandarins taste best fresh, straight after baking, similar to the piroshki with apricots. However, they will remain fluffy and soft over the next few days.
Store them in an airtight container in the fridge. You can reheat them briefly in the oven before serving.

Quark custard buns with mandarins
Ingredients
for the dough
- 100 g butter
- 250 ml milk lukewarm
- 25 g fresh yeast
- 140 g sugar
- 1 egg room warm
- 1/2 tsp salt
- approx. 620 g flour
- flour for the work surface
for the filling
- 125 g canned mandarins (drained weight)
- 100 g sugar
- 15 g cornstarch
- 200 ml milk
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 pinch of ground vanilla bean
- 300 g quark
for coating
- 1 egg white room warm
- 1 pinch of salt
for sprinkling
- powdered sugar
Instructions
Preparation of the dough
- Melt butter and leave to cool to lukewarm.
- Dissolve fresh yeast and sugar in lukewarm milk.
- Add egg, salt and melted butter and mix.
- Add flour in batches and knead into a very soft, slightly sticky dough. Then knead for approx. 10 minutes.
- Cover the yeast dough and leave to rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
Preparation of the filling
- Drain canned mandarins thoroughly in a sieve.
- Mix sugar and cornstarch in a thick-bottomed saucepan.
- Add milk and egg yolk and mix vigorously with a whisk to form a lump-free mixture.
- Place the saucepan on the stove, bring the mixture to the boil, stirring constantly until it thickens into a pudding, and continue to boil for approx. 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Remove the custard mixture from the heat, stir in vanilla and leave to cool to warm, stirring occasionally.
- Stir quark into the vanilla custard.
Preparation of the quark custard buns
- Knead the dough briefly on a lightly floured work surface and divide it into 12 equal pieces (in my case approx. 97 g - 98 g each).
- Shape each dough piece into a ball and then roll each ball into a circle approx. 0.5 cm thick.
- Divide the dough circles between two baking trays lined with baking paper (6 circles on each baking tray), leaving enough space between them, and leave them covered in a warm place to rise for 30 minutes.
- Now carefully make a wide hollow in each dough piece by pressing the dough in the middle with your fingers, leaving a rim approx. 1.5 - 2 cm wide.
- Mix egg white with salt and brush the edge of each pastry with it.
- Fill the hollows of the pastries with the quark custard mixture and lightly press the drained mandarin pieces into the filling.
- Bake the quark custard pastries one after the other, first on the first baking tray and then on the second baking tray in a preheated oven at 356 °F (180 °C) for approx. 20 minutes each.
- Allow the quark custard buns with mandarins to cool slightly on the baking trays and sprinkle them lightly with powdered sugar before serving.
