# 🥯 Soft Steamed Raisin Buns ![](Gemini_Generated_Image_pty108pty108pty1.png) ### 📋 Ingredients * **3** Large eggs * **140g** Warm water * **300g** Flour * **20g** Sugar * **~5g** Instant yeast (1 small packet) * **1 Handful** Raisins * Cooking oil (for greasing) --- ### 🥣 Instructions 1. **Mix Wet Ingredients:** Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the warm water, and whisk thoroughly. 2. **Form the Batter:** Add the flour, sugar, and instant yeast to the egg mixture. Stir with chopsticks until it forms a thick, consistent batter. 3. **First Proof:** Cover the bowl and let it rest in a warm place until it has doubled in size. The batter should look bubbly and stretchy. 4. **Add Raisins:** Toss in a handful of raisins and stir gently to incorporate them while removing excess air bubbles. 5. **Prep Bowls:** Lightly oil small heat-proof bowls. Distribute the batter evenly among them. 6. **Second Proof:** Let the batter rest in the bowls for another **10 minutes** in a warm spot. 7. **Steam:** Place the bowls in a steamer over boiling water. Steam for **30 minutes**. 8. **Rest:** Once the timer is up, turn off the heat but keep the lid on for a few more minutes before opening to prevent the buns from collapsing. --- ### 💡 Notes * **Texture:** These buns have a soft, cake-like texture rather than a traditional bread-like chew. * **Serving:** Best served warm for breakfast.
