Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Steam the pumpkin in advance and then pour out the water. Mix the flour, warm pumpkin, and yeast powder together in proportion to form a dough. You can also dissolve the yeast powder with warm water in advance. Personally, I think the dissolved yeast powder has a better effect than spreading it directly into the flour. The ratio of pumpkin to flour is just a rough ratio. The amount of flour can be increased or decreased based on actual conditions. After the dough is mixed, cover it with plastic wrap and set it aside to ferment at room temperature. The dough that has risen should be twice as big as before. Just poke a hole with your hand and it will not shrink back. When cut with a knife, the inside is honeycomb-shaped. Many mothers say that fermentation is not well controlled. If the room temperature is low, you can use the fermentation function of the oven.

   

2. 2 Take some flour, add some chocolate powder and make a chocolate-colored dough. In fact, this amount is very small, so I didn’t make the dough. Everyone can make dough.

   

3. 3 Prepare a tool similar to a tart crust mold. If not, you can use a round shape instead, and the skirt can be trimmed out with chopsticks. Roll out the chocolate-colored dough into a dough sheet and use a tart pastry mold to stamp out a round shape.

   

4. 4 Take a piece of pumpkin dough, roll it into a round shape like a bun, and cover it on the round chocolate dough piece so that the outline of the lion's head comes out. In this step, you can add bean paste or custard filling. What needs to be noted here is that the proportion of the pumpkin dough should not be too large, and should be two to three circles smaller than the chocolate dough, because the dough will rise and expand when steaming, which will cover the chocolate dough, so leave some space. Use two small pumpkin dough balls to make the lion’s ears and arrange them.

   

5. 5 Knead two small circles out of the chocolate dough and stick them on the dough with a little water to make the lion's eyes.

   

6. 6 Then roll the chocolate dough into a long strip to make the lion's mouth. Then roll a ball of chocolate dough into a ball to make a lion's nose, and a cute little lion is ready. Just use a toothpick to prick out the little spots on the lion's face. I didn't prick any spots that weren't particularly obvious after steaming them. I'm lazy, haha.

   

7. 7 After the second rise, put it in the pot and steam it for 15 minutes, then turn off the heat and cover it for a while before uncovering it to prevent the steamed buns from suddenly collapsing when cold. The latter one is about Little Bear. In fact, the process is similar. It’s simpler than a lion, look at the picture.
