Meat Buns 5 Steps Easy Delicious

Delicious Gluten-Free Meat Buns are a beloved Chinese street food filled with savory meat, crafted into a gluten-free version that is satisfying and perfect for any meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cup gluten-free flour blend
  • 2 teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 2 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoon green onions
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, instant yeast, and salt. Gradually add the warm water and mix with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms. Cover the dough and let it rest in a warm place for 30-45 minutes, allowing the yeast to activate and the dough to rise.

2. While the dough is resting, in another bowl, mix the ground chicken, soy sauce, green onions, ginger, and sesame oil until well combined. This flavorful filling will be the star of your Meat Buns.

3. Divide the dough into equal portions. Flatten each portion into a small circle, then place a spoonful of the filling in the center. Gather the edges of the dough and pinch them closed to seal the bun.

4. Arrange the shaped Meat Buns in a steamer, leaving space between each one. Steam the buns over boiling water for 15-18 minutes, or until the dough is firm and the filling is fully cooked.

5. Carefully remove the steamed Meat Buns from the steamer and serve them warm. These gluten-free beauties are perfect on their own or paired with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Avoid over-kneading the dough to prevent a tough texture.

Experiment with different protein fillings like ground turkey or plant-based alternatives.

Incorporate fresh herbs, spices, or chili oil into the filling for added flavor.

Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for later use.
