Nutella Banana Bao Buns Recipe

Prepare the Dough

In a bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy. In another bowl, combine flour, salt, and milk. Add the yeast mixture and knead until smooth. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.

Prepare the Filling

Slice bananas and mix them with Nutella, condensed milk, and sweet peanut powder in a bowl until combined.

Assemble the Bao

Once the dough has risen, divide it into small balls. Flatten each ball, place a spoonful of the filling in the center, and seal tightly to form a bao.

Roll in Sesame Seeds

Roll each filled bao in sesame seeds to coat evenly.

Fry the Bao

Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the bao until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Serve

Serve the deep-fried Nutella banana bao warm, drizzled with extra condensed milk if desired.
