Cooking Tree is serving you a delectable recipe for Melon bread (Melonpan), and we’ll show you how to prepare it from scratch.

Sweet toppings were added on top of the light bread to make a more delicious melon bread.
The lattice pattern on the top looks pretty even before baking, and looks delicious when baked.

I made it a little bigger in 6 pieces, but I think it would be a suitable size if I split it into 8 pieces~
When making a lattice pattern, you need to make a pattern that is deeper and clearer than you think, so that the correct shape comes out when baked.

If the secondary fermentation is done for too long before baking, the bread may swell a lot and the shape may not be pretty.

The bread is moist and light, but the topping on the top is sweet and savory, so it tastes better and has a good texture.

Enjoy watching~~♬~
