Bear Bread

Bear Bread

Overview

This is the first time I have made cartoon-shaped bread, and it is also the first time I have made bread that only rises once. The result really did not disappoint me. It is very soft and tastes just as good, eliminating the need to wait for fermentation.

  4. Divide the risen dough into 6 pieces of 30 grams and 6 pieces of 18 grams. Arrange the large and small pieces neatly and place them on a baking sheet lined with oil paper. The distance should be wider. You will also need to put the bear’s hands, feet and ears later (I put too much here, it’s a bit crowded, and it’s almost three on a baking sheet)

  5. Put it in the oven, put a bowl of hot water on the bottom shelf, and ferment for 60 minutes

  6. The fermentation time is just right to make the bear’s hands, feet and ears. Divide the extra dough into 36 pieces of 3 grams each and cover them with plastic wrap

  10. Melt the chocolate over water, and use the melted chocolate to draw the eyes and nose of the bear and decorate it (because there is no chocolate pen, I just use chopsticks to draw it. It is not exquisite enough, please ignore it)
