Added a little red dragon fruit purée to the sweet milk bun recipe to create a pink swirling pattern to the sweet and soft bread. I was happy to see the red pigment stayed the same at the end of the baking process.
I recently learned that the tiny seeds of the red dragon fruit contain the omega-3 fatty acid which is beneficial to the heart health. Maybe I should try a whole bread loaf of red dragon fruit next round 😁
