Good Morning!

TGIF and I hope this finds you well 😊

My back is slightly better. Crazy to think that I pulled it a week ago and it's still not 100%. Almost 2 weeks!! As you grow older, I guess 😅 Truly cracks and moans. Yikes! 😅😅😅😅

For today's recipe share, I have more steamed buns coming out of the kitchen, I hope you're not bored with them 😁 I like tweaking a recipe. Today I'd add this, tomorrow I'd add that, next time this and that. Thus, I won't bore my children with same flavor and texture 😁 My kids can be so picky 😁

Chose cycle number 9, for dough, and it will take about 1.5 H until it's ready, on my breadmaker.

Take out bloomed dough from the breadmaker, dump it on a clean surface, and divide into 60-90 grams portions.

Flatten each portion and spoon a tbsp raspberry jam on each, shape into rounds. Cover buns with clean towel, and let them rise again, for at least 20 minutes.

Preheat steamer, steam buns for 10 minutes. Take off steamer from heat, let stand for 10 minutes, then take out the buns.

Enjoy!

Ooooh! That looks very interesting and yummy!

I don't have a steamer... Hmmm...

You dont really need a steamer. It may sound tricky, but you can use regular pan, if you you a strainer. Place the strainer on the pan, and place a couple of buns in the strainer, close the lid of the pan, and steam. It should work as well.

😮😮😮 That is really clever! Thanks!

Wow what is buns? It is the same bread and buns(Bakpao?but Looks so delicious yymmy!Just asking bwt have a nice day!

Yes. Buns are bread. Bakpao is steamed bread, like siaopao in The Philippines, bao in China 😊
