Ingredients
- 250 g all-purpose flour
- 50 g glutinous rice flour
- 5 g instant yeast
- 180 ml warm milk
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 80 g brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 40 g mixed nuts
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
Steps
- Mix flours, yeast, sugar, and warm milk into a soft sticky dough.
- Knead 5 minutes.
- Cover and let rise 1 hour until doubled.
- Make the filling: combine brown sugar, cinnamon, and crushed nuts.
- Divide the dough into 8 balls, flatten each, place 1 tbsp filling in the center, then pinch closed and seal tightly.
- Fry sealed-side down in an oiled pan over medium heat, press flat with a spatula, and cook 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy; the filling inside should be molten — be careful of hot sugar.
