Ingredients (Serves 1–2)
Pumpkin: 100g
[A] Pancake mix: 100g
[A] Milk: 50ml
[A] Egg: 1
[A] Honey: 2 tbsp
[A] Melted butter: 10g
Black sesame seeds: 1/2 tsp
*Note: Infants under one year of age are at risk of infant botulism if they consume honey. Please do not give honey to infants under one year old.
Instructions
① Remove the seeds and fibrous pulp from the pumpkin, place it on a heat-resistant plate, and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Microwave at 600W for about 2 minutes; once it has cooled slightly, cut it into 1cm cubes, leaving the skin on.
② Combine ingredients [A] in a bowl and mix well, then pour the batter into a heat-resistant container lined with parchment paper. Mix half of the pumpkin from step ① into the batter, place the remaining pumpkin on top, and sprinkle with the black sesame seeds.
③ Fill a deep frying pan with hot water and place the container (with the batter) inside. Cover with a lid and steam over medium heat for about 20 minutes. Insert a bamboo skewer; if it comes out clean without batter sticking to it, it is ready!
Point | You can also make this in the microwave. If using a microwave, heat at 600W for about 5–6 minutes. However, steaming in a frying pan is recommended as it results in a fluffier texture.
