Pyeongchon bakery with cream red bean buns: Milbat Bakery

I found a bakery near Pyeongchon Station that I absolutely loved^^ It is apparently already a popular, well-known bakery in Pyeongchon, filled with breads baked in-house every morning at dawn.

I really, really recommend it to anyone looking for a bakery or bread shop in Pyeongchon!

The moment I opened the door, the nutty aroma of bread filled the air. Freshly baked breads were beautifully arranged in neat display cases under warm lighting.. 😍 I felt so happy the whole time I looked around the shop.

Milbat Bakery Pyeongchon (밀밭제빵소평촌) says it carefully makes bread every day with fresh ingredients, selecting good-quality ingredients with the mindset of feeding its own family..

The wide variety of breads in the display case

Looking through the cases, there were basic red bean buns, twisted doughnuts, glutinous-rice doughnuts, custard cream buns, and baked sweets..

I also spotted delicious croquettes, six-clove cream cheese garlic bread, and pollock roe baguettes.

Milbat Bakery Pyeongchon’s bestsellers are Basil Tomato, Napjjak-i, and Devil Bread. There were also green onion potato bread, cheese baguettes, mocha bread, Gongju chestnut brioche, melon bread, and many kinds of sandwiches.

There is such a wide variety: sweet dessert breads, breads with wonderfully chewy textures, and breads packed with cream. They sell only handmade breads that are kneaded and fermented in-house every morning, then baked that day, so you can enjoy fresh bread every day.

The large showcase held a variety of cakes and roll cakes. They also take separate advance orders for birthday cakes^^

The four breads I picked

Now let me introduce the breads I picked today~ They were the handmade red bean cream bun, Napjjak-i, Basil Tomato, and Devil Bread.

Handmade red bean cream bun packed with cream

Just looking at it, it seemed so fluffy~ This handmade red bean cream bun is sprinkled with black sesame seeds! Cut it in half and it is absolutely full of soft cream! It is not overly sweet, and the little red bean pieces popping up in each bite are so appealing.

There is so much cream, but it is not rich or heavy at all—it is soft and simply melts away in your mouth. The subtle sweetness of the red beans and the soft cream were the best combination!! I regretted buying only one... 😭😭

Napjjak-i, filling enough for a meal

Napjjak-i bread is known for its flat shape! It contains salami, Gouda, cream cheese, and tomato. The salty salami, rich Gouda, and soft cream cheese meet tangy tomato in such a beautifully balanced combination..

It is substantial enough for a meal and perfect as a snack, too. It is a generous size, so one is very filling! 😋

Basil Tomato bread that children enjoy too

Basil Tomato bread has a lovely waft of basil fragrance! It is a wholesome meal bread combining basil, tomato, and Emmental cream cheese. The tangy tomato, fragrant basil, and soft, rich Emmental cream cheese go together so well.

It is an appealing bread with a mild yet rich flavor that keeps you reaching for more. The basil flavor is not too strong, so children enjoy it too^^

Devil Bread with chewy glutinous-rice cake

Devil Bread catches your eye with its distinctive black appearance! It is topped with nutty walnuts, while the inside holds chewy glutinous-rice cake and cream cheese.

One bite gives you a crisp, nutty exterior, then incredibly chewy glutinous-rice cake and soft cream cheese inside—such an addictive texture. I tasted a sample, loved it so much, and picked it right away^^ haha

With the nutty walnuts added too, both the texture and flavor are perfect! Just like its name, it has a charm you cannot escape once you try it 😈💜

Final thoughts

This is a place where you can feel the care put into every single bread. They are generous with the ingredients, and I could taste the care in everything, so I enjoyed it very much. Next time, I will definitely come back to buy some of the other breads too^^ If you are looking for a Pyeongchon bakery or bread shop, I really recommend it 💛
