Steps for Pumpkin steamed buns

  • Make  step 0
    1
    Prepare a piece of pumpkin to wash, peel, cut it into thin slices with a knife, and steam it in a steamer for 6 to 7 minutes. (I don't have a juicer. If you have one, you should be able to grind it directly to save steaming)
  • Make  step 1
    2
    Crush the steamed pumpkin with a spoon into pumpkin puree.

    Then mix the dough, put the dry flour, the dry yeast powder melted in warm water at 35 degrees, and the pumpkin puree together to form a dough. Note that the pumpkin puree contains a lot of water, so when mixing the dough, add a lot less water than usual, and the dough is too hard. It's not too late to add it. Then let the dough stand for 50 minutes until it is fully fermented. The picture shows the dough that has been prepared, and its volume has doubled.

    Rub the dough again, rub it into cylinders, and cut it into evenly sized dough.

    Roll it twice slightly to form a dough sheet, which should be thicker, and then add a little bean paste filling, not too much, the bean paste is difficult to digest. I added raisins and crushed sesame seeds to the bean paste filling, which is personal preference.

    Take a few fried peanuts and use a knife to cut them lengthwise into four portions to make pumpkin handles.

    Then wrap the dough dough with the bean paste filling into a round steamed bun shape, use a knife to evenly press grooves around the steamed bun, like pumpkins. Finally, insert the peanuts into the middle, and the shape of a small pumpkin steamed bun comes out. Make all the steamed buns. Let stand for about 10 minutes before fermentation again.

    Of course, you can also do it by making a few hedgehogs or something. Use green beans for the hedgehog's eyes, use scissors to cut out the thorns on its body, and cut the hedgehog's mouth horizontally.

    Put it on a steamer and steam it for 15 minutes and the steamed buns are cooked. Isn't it cute? It actually tastes better!
