Pig Pig Bean Paste Bun

Overview

I saw so many people making animal buns. The prices sold in the supermarket were a bit expensive, so I decided to make them myself. I prepared all the materials last night and started making them early this morning.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Prepare the flour according to the number of people. First, mix the yeast with warm water and wait for a few minutes. Now that it is winter, the water for kneading the dough should also be warm. Add an appropriate amount of sugar, pour the yeast water and mix into a dough. Place it in a large bowl and wrap it with plastic wrap.

   

2. 2 If you have an oven with a fermentation function at home, adjust the temperature to between 25-30 degrees and ferment for 40-50 minutes. Don't overcook it.

   

3. 3 Ferment until doubled in size, then knead it, divide it into two parts, use one third to knead the cocoa powder

   

4. 4 Divide the bean paste into required equal portions, wrap and knead them in the same way as making egg yolk puff pastry, then flatten them with your hands and make them one by one.

   

5. 5 Knead the cocoa powder into 1/3 of the dough and roll it into a dough that is not too thin. You can also not roll it out

   

6. 6 You can make the shape of the animal according to your own imagination. To make a pig, just make a nose and poke two holes with chopsticks

   

7. 7 When done, put it in a steamer with cold water and wait for about 15 minutes. After the water boils, steam for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
