How to make pumpkin buns

• 

  1.Dissolve the dry yeast powder with warm water and pour it into the flour.Use chopsticks to quickly stir it into flakes in one direction and then knead it into dough

• 

  2. Steam the pumpkin in advance (I steam it together with the electric rice cooker to save trouble), puree it and let it cool for later use

• 

  3. After the dough is kneaded, add the steamed pumpkin puree little by little to make pumpkin puree dough.At this time, the dough should be light and smooth.

• 

  4. Cover the kneaded pumpkin dough with a damp cloth and let it ferment until doubled in size (I fermented it next to the steam pot in the kitchen because the cold temperature in the south in winter is too low for flour fermentation)p>

• 

  5.Knead the fermented dough for another 5 minutes to deflate, roll it into strips and pull out a small piece of flour Knead the dough into a round ball with the palm of your hand.Take a prepared raisin and insert it gently into the middle of the dough to make a pumpkin handle.Finally, use a toothpick to press out the pumpkin pattern.The small pumpkin steamed buns are ready.
