Soft Fluffy Gluten-Free Meat Steamed Buns / Baozi (No Xanthan Gum)
*After months of testing, I'm so excited to finally able to share with you these really good gluten-free steamed buns. It has taste and texture very close to regular steamed buns.
INGREDIENTS:
*To activate the yeast:
5 gr instant yeast 1 1/2 tsp
1 tsp sugar
2 Tbsp warm water (not hot)
*Dry ingredients for the dough (I highly recommend using a measuring scale):
88 gr cornstarch 1/2 cup + 4 Tbsp (spoon and level), plus more for dusting as needed
43 gr potato starch 4 Tbsp + 1 tsp (spoon and level)
45 gr glutinous rice flour 6 Tbsp + 1 tsp (spoon and level)
50 gr rice flour 6 Tbsp + 1 tsp (spoon and level)
1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
30 gr sugar 2 1/3 Tbsp
*Wet ingredients for the dough:
130 ml water or dairy/non-dairy milk 1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp
30 ml cooking oil 2 Tbsp
*For the gluten-free meat filling (you can use whatever filling you like):
1 Tbsp cooking oil
1 large onion peeled and finely chopped
120 gr leftover chicken meat (diced or shredded) (4.2 oz) or you can use about 200 grams (7 oz) raw chicken or pork
1 Tbsp tamari or coconut aminos. More or less to your taste
2 Tbsp brown sugar or more to your taste
1 tsp sesame oil
¼ tsp ground black pepper
To thicken the filling:
2 tsp cornstarch
1 Tbsp water

I MADE THESE TODAY!!! Thank you soooooo much!! I was very careful to weigh my ingredients as you advised, but I switched the corn to tapioca starch (allergy). I also used maple syrup in both the dough liquid and for the yeast, but I lowered the millilitres of my nondairy milk(hemp milk was my choice) to match the extra maple syrup addition. It came out EXACTLY like yours. I made my own vegan mincemeat filling and thickened it with millet flour, so delicious. My dumplings looked EXACTLY like yours when I broke it open!! I had to say that again, because I'm still shocked that your recipe worked. The inside was fluffy just like yours and that seems to be impossible with glutenfree+eggless concoctions. You wouldn't believe how many recipes I've followed with high hopes but just ended up wasting my expensive ingredients. I subscribed right away, I don't care if this is your only recipe that I can have. This one recipe alone is worth it!!! I wish you blessed days always💛

@@natsam1883 May I ask does it taste a bit doughy? I'm also allergic to gluten, looking for how to make bun.
Our first attempt at these worked wonderfully! I wasn't able to get potato starch at the time, so I just used more corn starch. Wasn't a problem, though I'll try to have potato starch on hand next time. We need some more practice in shaping them "tall" rather than "wide," but they still came out great. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.

I made these today and I used the vegan beyond burger meat with my minced up carrots, onions, celery and spinach. I added a touch of balsamic vinegar, oregano, maple syrup and millet flour to thicken it. This truly is a good recipe. She formulated her dough ingredients beautifully. It came out exactly like hers, soft and fluffy.

Is it possible to substitute the corn starch for tapioca starch? I have a corn allergy but I am dying to try these steamed buns!

I made these today and I too am allergic to corn products so I subbed it out for the same amount of tapioca starch. It came out exactly like hers. I had to share with you and another commenter because for once I didn't end up disappointed and wasting my ingredients. Her recipe was cleverly designed, very effective.
Are these buns supposed to be sweet? I understand that yeast uses sugar as a food source, but what was the purpose of adding sugar to the flour? Is bread meant to be a sweet bun?
About to go to store and do this today. I've done so many regular siopaos before but my girlfriend is allergic to gluten. Let's see how it turns out.

Sorry for the late reply! I won't recommend freezing before final proofing. You can, however, freeze the cooked buns after they have cooled down completely and reheat whenever you want to eat them.
Baking power - 1:00 The writing and the colour of the flour makes is almost impossible to see the ingredient. Tamari: Little to no wheat (always double-check if avoiding gluten) Soy Sauce: Includes wheat (not gluten-free) (Both of these can be brought gluten free- but check before using. Great video :)

Did you use a scale to measure the ingredients? I've been successfully doing this same recipe for about 9 months now and it's exactly like hers. Tell me what brand of rice flours etc you used, maybe it could be too coarsely ground if you weighed everything...
Why not use xanthan gum to help with elasticity?
I'm trying to figure out a way to make a better keto version of bao/siopao so that I can enjoy it to the fullest. Is there any way possible I can make one without yeast, cornstarch, or potato starch? I do have special bao flour, as well as yeast and potato starch. But I want to make my special bao flour rise and still be the same fluffy texture as yours, but without yeast or starch.

Have you tried growing your own yeast, as in a sourdough starter? For about a year my stomach couldn't handle store bought yeast, then I cultivated my own yeast and made my glutenfree vegan sourdough breads-my stomach reacted just fine. My digestion got better, thank my sweet Savior, and eventually I was able to enjoy store bought yeast every now and then.
I may be missing it, but is there a recipe for this post?

Is there any chance that the dough may not be proofed enough ? gluten-free dough takes a bit longer to puff up usually. Also, were you measuring with a scale ?

@@WhatToCookToday I carefully followed your measurements by cups, tbsp. And tsp. And double checked them and then I gave one hour and a half to proof the dough in the warmed oven and after it's been filled I proofed it again for 30 minutes. I can't think of anything else that might have been too much of flour. My family and I think it taste good the only thing is it's not soft and fluffy or maybe it's a little bit fluffy but not enough to say it's soft.
What if dough does stick to hands?
Can you store or freeze them and for how long, please do you know?

You can freeze them once they have cooled down completely. They can stay frozen for 1-2 months. Simply reheat in the steamer after that.
