Sweet Potato Bun - Steamed


After cooking some sweet potato soup and used up 2 for the chips, I have 3 more left in my pantry. I have this recipe on hand but I can't remember where it came from so if you know the orignator, please let me know so I can credit him/her accordingly.


When I did this last time, I used to plait it but I'm too lazy to do anything fanciful as:
  1. I don't have much time to spare
  2. I'm using my AMC steamer which can only accommodate a 8" round cake pan
This is a very soft and fluffy bun although the look is not impressive. This shows that I've a lot to improve on :P
