Bean Paste Pinwheel Buns

Overview

I made red bean paste two days ago and needed a place to go, so I started thinking about making red bean paste buns, but I wanted to make some tricks, so I started fiddling with it. In fact, it wasn't too difficult. I just used the ordinary bread recipe to make the dough and wrap it with red bean paste. It was that easy.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Place a bowl, add 85 grams of warm water, 2 tablespoons of condensed milk, 1/8 teaspoon of refined salt, 10 grams of white sugar, 25 grams of whole egg liquid, and 4 grams of yeast, and stir evenly.

   

2. 2 Put 200 grams of all-purpose flour into a mixing bowl, pour in all the mixed water in the bowl in step 1, and mix at speed 2 for about 10 minutes. After forming a dough, add 45 grams of unsalted butter (three large bars of butter), and mix at speed 2 for about 20 minutes.

   

3. 3 Apply some oil with your fingers, pull a small piece of dough and stretch it into a film. It doesn't need to be too thin, just enough to form a film.

   

4. 4 Place the dough in a bowl greased with vegetable oil or butter and let it rise in a warm environment for 60 minutes.

   

5. 5 When the time is up, take out the dough, knead it for a while to remove air bubbles, then cover it with film and let the dough relax for about 10 minutes.

   

6. 6 Divide the dough into 6 equal parts, roll into balls and let rest for about 15 minutes.

   

7. 7 Divide the bean paste into 6 portions of 40 grams each.

   

8. 8 Roll the small dough into a round piece, about 10 cm in diameter, put it into the palm of your hand, put the bean paste filling in the middle, roll the edges upward like a bun, wrap it well, and pinch the opening tightly.

   

9. 9 Turn the seam downward and roll it a few times to make the seam smooth and round.

   

10. 10 Use the palm of your hand to flatten the stuffed ball to about 1 cm thick; 11, 12, 13.

    

11. 11 Use a small cup or bowl to make an indentation in the middle to have a reference when cutting into halves. If the eye is done well, you don’t need to make an indentation.

    

12. 12 First cut four knives into four petals without cutting to the center.

    

13. 13 Cut another knife in the middle of each petal to form 8 petals.

    

14. 14 Twist each flap 180° to the left or right.

    

15. 15 Place three on a baking sheet, brush with egg wash, sprinkle with black sesame seeds in the middle, and leave in a warm environment for 30 minutes.

    

16. 16 You don’t need to twist the cut dough, brush the surface with egg wash, and sprinkle black sesame seeds in the middle. It’s also very nice. You can also put it in a warm environment to rest for 30 minutes.

    

17. 17 Preheat the oven to 340°F (about 170°C) and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until browned. Enjoy!
