Soft and Moist Coconut Buns
by MaomaoMom
Coconut bun is one of the well-known Chinese desserts. I have refined this recipe and used it in my kitchen for years. It is loved by my friends and colleagues as well. They all ask for this recipe. I share the English version here and hope you will enjoy it too.
Prepare Time: 25 minutes
Cooking time: 15+15 minutes
Level: Medium
Yield: 16 servings
Ingredients
Flour custard:
1) 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, ½ cup water;
Dough:
2) 1 large egg, ½ cup whipping cream (118g), ½ cup and 1 tablespoon milk (134g), ½ cup sugar (105g), 2 tablespoons dry milk powder (11g), 3 cups minus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (475 g), 2 tablespoons wheat gluten, 2 teaspoons fast rising yeast;
3) 1.5 tablespoons butter melted in a microwave oven, 1.5 tablespoons corn oil;
Coconut filling:
4) ½ cup sugar (105g), 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (21g), ½ cup unsweetened fine coconut, ¼ cup butter (55g) melted;
5) ½ beaten egg;
6) ½ cup raisins;
Egg wash:
7) ½ beaten egg;
Directions
1: Flour custard: Add ingredients 1 in a small bowl and mix well. Heat in a microwave oven at high for 15 seconds and stir. Repeat the heating and stirring 3 to 4 times until the mixture thickens. Cover with food wrap and place in a fridge overnight.
2: Put flour custard in a bread machine , then add all ingredients 2 one by one. Select “Dough” and start program. Add ingredients 3 after 5 minutes and continue until the program finishes. The entire process takes about 2 hours.
3: In a medium size mixing bowl, mix ingredients 4 and 5 as the coconut filing.
4: When the dough doubles in volume, gently knead a few times on a floured surface and divide it into two equal parts. Roll each piece into a 3 mm thick, 16×24 cm rectangle. Evenly spread half of the coconut filling on each piece, then sprinkle ¼ cup raisins. Cut horizontally into eight stripes that are 2×24 cm. Loosely roll each stripe from one end to the other. Place eight coconut buns on one baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat for the other half of the dough. Cover both baking sheets with food wrap and leave in a warm place for 1 hour until the volume is doubled.
5: Preheat oven at 350F, then brush the buns with beaten egg. Bake one sheet with eight coconut buns in the oven for 15 minutes. Repeat for the 2nd baking sheet.
6: Cool for 10 minutes before serving.
7: Store coconut buns in a lidded container inside a freezer. Reheat in a microwave oven for 30 seconds before serving.
毛毛妈,特别喜欢这个面包,但是配方上的 “动物性奶油(whipping cream)” 找不到阿,我在澳洲,超市卖cream的那边有罐装 dairy whipping cream,是否就是这个?谢谢
dairy whipping cream可以。
毛毛妈,你好!自己也买了BLACK&DECKER的面包机 型号B6000C
可里面的选项没有一个专门的揉面选项 要做面包只能选择做哪种面包
点好程序,就开始做。如果我不想让它烤,如何判断它啥时候发酵好了
可以拿出来整型 进烤箱烤呢?
我的是Black Decker All in One Plus, 有Dough档,用它和面。没有的话选面包程序,揉面停止后拿出来发酵。
谢谢毛毛妈,我看了一下,有dough这个选项。明白了dough这个程序,它只负责揉面发面
弄好了,就是自己拿出来整形,二次发酵,再烤是吧
那你就用这个,一般共2小时,面发好。你拿出来整形,二次发酵,再烤。
