Steamed Pumpkin Muffins

Wow wee...I have never thought this was an easy recipe as I always feel that it needs a lot of technique and "lucky" hand for it to rise correctly but I made it! This recipe is very simple to follow and once I opened the steamer, I can see all the muffins smiling at me beautifully. There are 2 ingredients that I modified in this recipe. I reduced the sugar from 120g to 80g and used self-raising flour instead of cake flour (cos I ran out of cake flour). The muffins turned out to be soft, fluffy and the sweetness were just right.

Ingredients

125gm steamed pumpkin flesh
1 egg
80g sugar
100g evaporated milk
30g corn oil
Sieve together:
180g cake flour/Self-raising flour
20g rice flour
1.5tsp baking powder

Directions

1. Prepare your steamer and bring the water to a boil.
2. Put steamed pumpkin flesh, egg, sugar, milk and oil and mix well.
3. Add in flour mixture and mix until well combined.
4. Spoon into lined steaming cups and steam for 15 mins. It will bloom by itself, no need to make a cross with oil.
