Steamed Buns with 100% Rice Flour
Steamed rice-flour buns that open up like a blooming flower when done. Only slightly sweet — add more sugar if you like, or fold in sweet potato, beans or grated carrot.
Ingredients
| 125 g | Rice flour (for baking) |
| 35 g | Sugar |
| 5 g | Baking powder |
| 150 g | Soy milk or water |
| 10 g | Vegetable oil |
| 10 g | Vinegar |
Instructions
- Fill your steamer with water and start to heat it up (you will be steaming these on high, so be careful of the steam).
- Mix all the ingredients together and pour them into a muffin tray. The vinegar is to help the rice flour expand. It won't smell of vinegar at all after you've cooked your buns.
- Place the tray in the steamer once the water is boiling (this is the trick). Steam for 10-15 minutes over high heat. When the top of the buns opens up (like a flower blooming), it's ready.
- In the picture you see, I added sweet potatoes! You can add in beans or grated carrots too. This is only slightly sweet, so add more if you want.
