It’s so cute, you must learn how to make such cute little elephant buns

Overview

The very cute little elephant steamed buns use purple cabbage, so they are made in pink color. They can be changed to other colors or white. The baby at home doesn’t like to eat steamed buns, especially the kind. The snails I made last time were very effective, so today I made baby elephants to coax the kids. It’s really effective. Ingredients: 100 grams of ordinary flour, 15 grams of sugar, 1 gram of yeast powder, appropriate amount of milk, purple cabbage. Some accessories: a few red beans, a few drops of white vinegar. Tools: fruit knife or knife

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Wash and chop purple cabbage. Put it in a food processor and add a little water to make purple cabbage juice. After beating, use a sieve to filter out the residue. Dissolve the yeast powder with a little warm water and let it sit for a while. This tells the yeast to start working. Pour the flour into the bowl, add the sugar and stir evenly. Add yeast water and mix well. If you like the color pink, add a few drops of white vinegar to the purple cabbage juice to turn it pink. If you don't like the color, you don't need to add it. Add the discolored purple cabbage juice and stir until the flour has color, because milk will be added later. If milk is not added, you can slowly add purple cabbage juice here and then mix it into a dough. After mixing, ferment at room temperature and wait

   

2. 2 Use your hands to pinch out a third of the elephant's trunk.

   

3. 3 Then cut out the baby elephant's legs.

   

4. 4 Use another knife to cut off the excess dough, and the little elephant's legs will come out.

   

5. 5 Cut out the little elephant's mouth below the nose.

   

6. 6 Use the cut-out dough to make a round shape and glue it to the elephant's head with a little water to make ears.

   

7. 7 Use red beans to make baby elephant eyes. Red beans are raw and will be very hard when steamed, so be sure to remove them before the baby eats them. It is best to replace them with honey beans. You can also steam it and use seaweed or tomato sauce instead. Finally, don’t forget the little elephant’s tail, just cut it off a little bit with a knife.

   

8. 8 Put a pot on water and steam it for about 15 minutes after the water boils. The small one I made was cooked in more than 10 minutes. If I make it larger, the steaming time will be longer.
