Pumpkin and Red Date Hair Cake
1.
Prepare the ingredients
2.
Pumpkin seeds, peeled and cut into small pieces, steamed until soft and hot, add sugar
3.
Mash the pumpkin into a puree with a fork and let cool
4.
Add flour and yeast
5.
When it is made into dough, the dough will be a little sticky, that’s okay, this kind of steamed cake needs a higher water content to be delicious.
6.
Take a 6-inch non-stick mold (if you don’t have it, you can use a pot, a large bowl, or a glass crisper at home, but apply a layer of oil on the surface to prevent sticking). Put some oil on your hands and put the dough into the mold. The dough will not stick to your hands after greased), cover with plastic wrap, and ferment to 2 times the size
7.
Fermented dough
8.
Remove the pits of the red dates and place them evenly on the dough
9.
Put it into a steamer, steam for 35 minutes after steaming, take out and cut into pieces and serve
Tips:
Tips:
1. If the pumpkin itself is very sweet or those who like low sugar, do not add white sugar.
2. Making hair cake is actually turning flour into batter, but be careful not to be too thin. The dough must be fermented well before being steamed.
