Recently I saw this 'puppy' shaped buns appeared in food blogsphere. They look cute. Do you think so? Here I would like to share with my readers on this less effort and easy to shape cute 'puppy'. Thanks to blogger friends for their sharing :)
I make 'puppy' steamed buns instead of bread. For the eyes I prefer black beans as the black beans look more like eyes and nose. Do use cooked beans as you can enjoy the 'puppy' with those eyes and nose :D I hope your family members especially kids like them. Let's see how to make your own edible 'puppy'!

| Lovely texture! |
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup low protein flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp instant yeast
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup low protein flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp instant yeast
30g
sugar
200g pumpkin purée
80ml water
Some cooked black beans for decorate
200g pumpkin purée
80ml water
Some cooked black beans for decorate
*Tip
on how to cook black beans.
Soak
the beans in salt water overnight (or several hours). After the soaking process
the beans will turn soft to press but still hard inside. Cook with pressure
cooker for about 5 minutes or according to your pressure cooker instruction.
The cooked black beans can be kept well in freezer. Do cook more as it is nice
and good to eat as snack at anytime.
Methods:
1. Put flour, baking powder, yeast, sugar and pumpkin
puree into mixing bowl. Add in water and knead to form soft dough. Cover and
rest for one hour or double in size.
2. Transfer the dough to working surface. Divide
into 80g portions. Shape into round and leave to rest for 10 minutes.
3. Roll out into oval shape. With a pizza cutter make cuts at both sides to shape ‘ears’. Place on greased paper and leave to rest for 20 minutes.
4. Decorate with cooked black beans for ‘eyes’ and ‘nose’.
5. Start steaming from cold water with medium heat. Once the water boiled steam further 8 minutes.
6. Leave the steamed buns inside steamer for few minutes before open the lid.
