8.
Then round the dough, put it in a basin, cover with a wet towel, and perform the first fermentation at 28 degrees Celsius.

Shake off the excess purple sweet potato powder and put it in a baking dish lined with greased paper
16.
Poke the right amount of holes with a toothpick to make it more like purple sweet potato

Carry out the second fermentation, and the fermentation can be done for 30 minutes (use the oven to ferment, put a cup of warm water in the oven), and then preheat the oven to 160 degrees, up and down the heat, and bake for 30 minutes.
Tips:
1. Don't add clean water all at once, add slowly, stirring while adding, until the dry flour is ready to knead;
2. The temperature of the oven should be adjusted according to the temperament of the oven at home. If it feels colored, it should be covered with tin foil.
