Instructions

1. Dissolve 1 tbsp sugar and 3/4 tsp instant yeast in 180 g water.
2. Slowly pour this into 350 g all-purpose flour while stirring.
3. Gather the flour into a rough dough with your hands, then knead in 2 tsp vegetable oil until smooth.
4. Cover and proof for 1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
5. Coarsely blend the roasted sesame seeds and roasted peanuts, then mix with 140 g white sugar and 4 tsp all-purpose flour to make the filling.
6. Punch down the dough and knead for 6 minutes or until smooth again.
7. Divide the dough into 10 pieces of 50 to 55 g each. Cover and rest for about 10 minutes.
8. Dust one piece with flour and roll it flat to about 4 inches across, then roll the edge thinner so the wrapper is about 5 inches across with a thicker middle.
9. Cup the wrapper in your hand, add 2 tbsp of filling, and pleat the edges closed. Repeat with the rest.
10. Place the buns in the steamer with space between them, on parchment paper. Cover and proof for 30 minutes.
11. Fill the pot with room-temperature water and bring to high heat, then set the steamer on top. When steam appears, reduce to medium-low and steam for 10 more minutes.
12. Turn off the heat and leave the lid closed for at least 5 minutes before opening.
