Pumpkin steamed buns (Hee Ban) - 南瓜喜粄

Remember my previous post i made steamed pumpkin mantou...I had some left over pumpkin puree in the freezer. I make this pumpkin Hee Ban and pumpkin noodles (will post next).
This pumpkin steamed buns (hee ban) is not much of pumpkin aroma but it is soft with a little chewy. I have also made the pink and the white Hee Ban here
It is simply addictive. Can't stop at one piece but it is like one piece after another..heehee

3) After proofing, add  in baking powder mixed to combine. Then add in the rest of the main dough ingredients (sugar, glutinous rice flour, plain flour, oil and mashed pumpkin) knead into a smooth andsoft dough. (i add all of the ingredients into bread pan and let my bread maker to do the mixing and kneading job) Brush a thin layer of oil on the surface of the dough and let it sit for 10 minutes.
