Fragrant Bean Baked Bun (Oven Version) Exclusive

After making the three-color large flower rolls, there was some dough left, just enough to bake fragrant bean buns. (The dough should be slightly soft when fermented)

A suitable amount of tonka bean powder, add a little flour, mix with scallion oil to make tonka bean oil pastry.

Turmeric powder, add a little flour, and mix with scallion-flavored oil to make a thin turmeric butter pastry.

Take an appropriate amount of dough, knead it to remove air and shape it into a round ball. (I divided it into two batches.)

Roll it into a thin sheet of dough.

Sprinkle a thin layer of salt. (Those who prefer a sweet taste can sprinkle some sugar.)

Spread a layer of fragrant bean oil pastry.

Sprinkle a thin layer of flour on top.

Roll from the inside out.

The closing edge faces down.

Cut into pieces of uniform size. Repeat the same steps with the other half of the dough.

Pour a little scallion oil on the bottom of the inch-sized baking pan (with removable bottom).

Brush evenly.

Place it into the mold (the flower in the middle is made from the two cut ends; the flower pattern doesn’t look very nice, but since there’s no more dough, it can only be placed like this 😅). The exact number of dough pieces depends on the size of the mold.

First, brush a thin layer of turmeric butter pastry.

Let it rise a second time in a warm place. It just fills the mold, looking very pretty like a flower.

Brush on another thin layer of turmeric butter. When baking, it won't be too dry, with a crispy outside and soft inside.

Preheat the oven, first set the top heat to 200°C and the bottom heat to 230°C and bake for 10 minutes, worried that the heat was too high and it might burn. Then adjust the top heat to 160°C and the bottom heat to 180°C, and bake for another 20 minutes. (Adjust according to your own oven situation)

The baked kun guo bread. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, absolutely beautiful 😍
