Steps for Making Red Bean Flower Bread

Knead the dough until it can be stretched into a thin film. Let it ferment until it doubles in size.

After deflating, divide the dough into several portions, roll them into balls, and let them rest for 15 minutes.

Roll the dough into thin sheets and wrap them around the red bean paste.

Seal the edges and roll them into round shapes.

Cut eight slits with a knife, but do not cut through the center.

You can also make flower-shaped bread like this: wrap the red bean paste in a thin sheet of dough and fold it in half.

Cut several slits on one side of the half circle.

Let it ferment again in a warm place. After fermentation, brush with egg wash and sprinkle with a little black sesame.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and bake for 25 minutes.
