Prepare pumpkin 300g, flour 400g, sugar 20g, yeast 3g, milk powder 20g and milk 180ml.
-Start making-
1. Wash and peel the prepared pumpkin. Generally, pumpkins are so big that it is difficult to eat one at a time. Cut the pumpkin, remove the pulp, wrap it in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for next use.
2. Peel the pumpkin and cut it into thin slices. The thinner it is, the easier it is to steam. I used 300 grams of pumpkin and steamed it for about 10 minutes.
3. After the pumpkin is steamed, take it out, add 20g of white sugar (add white sugar according to your own taste) and mash it into pumpkin puree. You can also take a little granule, let it cool slightly, add 3g yeast and 20g milk powder, stir with chopsticks until it melts, then add 400g flour, and stir with 180ml milk while pouring until there is no dry flour.
4. After the dough is kneaded, there is no need to lick it. Just rub it on the chopping board. At first, the dough was not smooth. Let it stand for 5 minutes, and then it will be easy to knead.
5. Prepare a grinding tool. I use an 8-inch grinder here, with a piece of oil paper on the bottom and a layer of oil around it to prevent sticking. Put the kneaded dough in, arrange it by hand, cover it with plastic wrap and make it 8 minutes full.
6. After baking, put your favorite fruit on the dough. I use red dates, then put cold water into a steamer, steam for about 45 minutes, turn off the fire and stew for 5 minutes before opening the lid.
7. The long 50-odd minutes have finally arrived. Our pumpkin hair cake is very good. After a little cooling, demould and cut into your favorite shape, and you can enjoy it beautifully.
Pumpkin has a strong taste, mixed with the sweetness of milk and red dates. It's like taking a bite across the screen. The pumpkin hair cake made by this method does not need to be whipped twice, and it is water-free and oil-free. It is delicious and nutritious. Autumn is also the season of pumpkin harvest, and the price is relatively cheap. It can be steamed, boiled and used to make pumpkin breakfast cake, which is light and nutritious. My family has never bought breakfast, and it is different every time.
