Char Siew Buns with Pumpkin Dough/Straight Dough Method


I have some left over char siew filling from making char siew steamed buns. So I decided to make them as filling for my family breakfast bread.
 

Although this bread is using straight dough method it still stay soft the next day. Do keep some pumpkin purée in freezer for this bread the next time you bought it :D
