Salted Caramel Steamed Buns

Salted Caramel Steamed Buns are a delicious and unique twist on traditional steamed buns. These buns are filled with a rich and creamy salted caramel filling that is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. To make these buns, you will need the following ingredients:

For the dough:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp active dry yeast
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil

For the filling:

- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 tsp sea salt
To make the dough, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a large bowl. Add the warm water and vegetable oil, and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough for 5-10 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
To make the filling, heat the sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it melts and turns a deep amber color. Add the heavy cream and butter, and stir until the mixture is smooth. Stir in the sea salt, and remove the mixture from the heat.
Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, and then flatten it into a disc. Place a spoonful of the salted caramel filling in the center of each disc, and then pinch the edges together to seal the filling inside.
Place the buns in a steamer basket, and steam them for 10-12 minutes, until they are puffed and cooked through. Serve the buns warm, and enjoy the delicious combination of sweet and salty flavors.
