I have used this recipe at least five time now, and it came out perfectly every time. I doubled the recipe today and it came out very well. I am going to try cutting back on yeast next times. Wonder if anyone has experience with doubling the recipe you would share.
The Chinese restaurant next to my Dad's store used to make these. Your photos look the closest to what they looked like. We LOVED these, but the restaurant is gone now. I've never seen them in any other place no matter where I've lived or traveled. So, can't wait to try this out. My husband loves to make bread, so we'll probably work it out together.
These look beautiful. I made steamed BBQ pork buns on a 7 day Grand Canyon Trip a few years back. My guests could hardly believe we could eat so well on a backpacking trip. I will make these - just a different twist on the steamed version. Thank you! Lovely instructional presentation. I learned something new about bread - making the milk and flour past to add to bread dough. Gonna try this as well. I do love cooking and baking!
Omg! My mouth is salivating, I used to get these char Siu Bao's in the tea shops in Chinatown in NYC and I can't find them here in Florida, so I guess I'll have to make them myself. Thank you! for the recipe.
you just made my last meal i would choose ... my best friend turned me on to this amazing delight ... i am hooked ... with chili oil of course .... well done thank you
I love Siu Bao. I have only made steamed buns before. Never tried oven baked. I am going to have to give this one a try. Thanks for your continued sharing of great recipes.
I can understand your bias towards the baked bao. My first experience with bao was in Pike Place Market in downtown Seattle. In the catacombs of the lower levels I found a little Bao shop with baked ones just like this, and was mind blown. I ordered some of the steamed variety a few months later and was sadly disappointed to find the white fluffy kind were completely different (And lesser, in my opinion). While biting into a steamed cloud can be nice, I did enjoy the more bread like texture of the baked. And the color is far more appealing. Thank you so much for posting this recipe. I cannot wait to try this out for myself!
Am trying your recipe today! I used to shy away from making bread because of so much kneading involved. Your using the Kitchenaid kneader pushed me to try it with your recipe. Thank you so much, Shannon! God bless! Xoxo
Thanks for sharing your easy to follow video and recipe for making BAKED char siu bao!!! I'm a total fan of the baked vs the steamed and since my wife made char siu, it gave me the idea to make the bao. My wife was very skeptical and anxious that I was going to attempt to bake and possibly create a mess in her kitchen while attempting this but it all worked out and my wife being my biggest worst critic actually posted my process on FB and said it was "Yummy!!!" and many of the comments were that it "Looked Legit" and delicious was well worth it! So thank you for helping me indulge my craving and getting a thumbs up from friends and especially my wife!!!
I just tried making char siu buns for the first time, and they turned out even better than I expected! The dough came out soft and fluffy, and the filling was perfectly balanced. Your recipe was so easy to follow, and I’m really happy with the results. I’ll definitely be making this again. Thank you for sharing such a great recipe! Just subscribed. keep up the good work.
I’m speechless to the recipe you presented, so yummy 😋😋😋just done baking it and my husband love it so much, thank you for sharing ❤God bless and more power 🌼🌸🌺
Had a blast making these last weekend. Rolled and filled them with my 5 yo Granddaughter who is a huge fan of Char siu bao. Used a purchased marinade to use on a pork tenderloin, and it was really good. Ultimate compliment from her...the best ever! The tangzhong mixture was a great new trick to learn about. thanks!
Wow! Thank you so much! I have not had baked Char Siu Bao since I moved to Idaho 22 years ago! We used to buy it in Oakland, California all the time. I have been hungry for these for YEARS and YEARS! At least I can get the Char Siu BBQ pork here so now I can make it. :D
Love making steamed char siu bao. I'm not to sure whether I would like the buns baked in a oven. The steamed bun has a totally unique texture compared to a oven baked bun!!!
Hi Shannon ! I just baking finished baking cha siu boa using your dough recipe. I have to say it turn out fantastic. The dough is very soft and delicious. Thanks for the recipe.
Many thanks! These came out soft and yummy and it lasted for days. I have done this twice already and will be doing another one again this week. It's a great quick meal -- I would just heat it up in the microwave for 10 seconds to have it nice and warm, and the buns are still moist. The dough recipe sounded strange at first with so little milk left, but I did as you suggested and it was perfect. I made my buns smaller and was able to have 14-16 buns, so there is more for me to share with my friends and family. They loved it too! I use the dough setting on my bread machine to prepare the dough. For the filling, I love how simple it is compared to the other recipes I have tried. I just added some re-hydrated chopped shitake mushrooms into the filling since I love shitake mushrooms. I tried steaming 2 out of the 14 buns, and I did not seal it well, so it opened up while proofing. The steamed version did not come out as yummy as the baked ones, as it fell flat. This will be my go to recipe for baked char siu buns. When preparing the buns, just remember to seal and pinch the seams tight, otherwise, it will likely open up during the proofing stage.
Hi. I'm from the Philippines and I love Chinese foods. Those were different from the white baozi, but they taste good to me since we also have that in my country.
@@InShannonsKitchen They really are the best. They are not available at the normal Yum Cha place I go now. Thank you so much for the recipe because now I can try to make some at home 😃
these look just like the ones at the chinese bakery i get them at. i could honestly eat probably like ten of them lol i probably wouldnt feel great after, but they are that good
Foremost, thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I have been looking for a good recipe for quite a while now and so glad I chance on yours! The whole time I was just steaming paus and dreaming of baking them one day when I get my hands on a good recipe! However, I may have to try to make my own char siew as it is not available in Germany! Btw I like your little giggle in between ... I’m also your subscribed now! Keep the recipes coming!
I have made this twice, once just the bro to make sure I could make it, and the char siu boa. Was wonderfully. I just made some with bbq pulled pork. But the dough was more dense and very elastic. I'm thinking I needed it toouch.
I've used ypur recipe several.times.and it turn out soooo good.each time. Thank you. Just want to ask if I can use wholemeal flour instead as a healthier option. If yes, will the amount of flour and method.remains the same.
So glad you enjoyed it! You could try using equal portions of whole meal flour though the texture will not be as soft. You can try substituting half of the white flour for whole wheat so it’s a little healthier. Hope that helps!
Thank u Shannon! That was easy to follow and I am so glad u have written the detailed instructions in this post . Will try it soon loved it. I just watched the other video of cocktail bun by another Asian lady and u r both super good and has shown an easy to follow recipe 😀. Thanks a lot and Happy New Year 2022🎄🎉from ur new fan!!
Is it okay to substitute the bread flour with All Purpose flour in this recipe? If so, how much milk can I add since I heard that AP flour will be wetter than bread flour? Thank you very much for the recipe😊
The reason bread flour is used here is because of it's high protein content. It provides a stronger, bouncier dough. Bread flour is also used in a lot of Chinese noodle recipes for the same reason. If you're going to take the time and effort to make these, I would recommend picking up a bag of bread flour. I don't know about where you live, but here the local grocery chain carries them for 3-4$ for their generic brand, which works just fine. Or if you really want to go all in, you can buy King Arthur brand, which is much finer quality. To use the rest, most baked breads use the flour, as do Chinese noodles such as "Biang Biang".
Shannon, I made the Chr Siu Bao for Chinese New Year this year. They turned out to be perfect! I really like your recipe for the bread part. Next, I am going to make 1/2 batch of Char Siu Bao and 1/2 batch of pineapple bun using the same dough. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Thank you so much for sharing the recipe. Tried it and it turned out well. Everyone who tastes it, loves it. Bao is very soft and fluffy. I made smaller ones in oval shapes. For the filling, I added some sesame oil instead and it was nice and aromatic. For the slurry, I mixed in some potato starch to the cornflour. Filling was firmer and easier to fill the baos, yet was able to keep the filling moist. Thanks again with much appreciation.
Hi your video is so easy to follow :) but I’ve always been curious can the char sui pork filling be used in the steam bun version as well as the Baked version. Whenever I go to Chinatown, I usually get the baked kind bc I favor the bread taste over the steamed but always wondered if the pork fillings are the same? Hope to hear back :)
Made this recipe three times. First two I had to keep adding flour because it was way too wet. The cup measurements are way off of the weighted amounts. I finally started with 400g of flour instead of 351g. It was perfect.
I have finally got round to making charsiu buns using this recipe yesterday. It’s well worth the wait! The buns turned out really well and were absolutely delicious! It’s just as well that I made 12 using the ingredients (to reduce the calories for each) as the other half had 2 right away!! Today the buns were still lovely and soft. I only needed to warm them for a couple of minutes. Many many thanks for sharing this recipe! By the way, do you have any suggestions as to what other fillings I could use?
This makes me so happy to hear! I figure you can go savory with other fillings that use meat, or go with a sweet version with red bean or custard. I have a recipe for red bean filling on my channel to give you somewhere to start.
Hi Shannon! Thanks for your recipe. The buns are very soft and fluffy. My family like it very much. May l know whether can we use this recipe for frying or steam instead of using oven to bake it.thank you.
I tried this. For the most part it worked a treat. The flavours were there. I "bbq"d the pork myself as I don't live close enough to anywhere to buy pre-done LOL. However, the dough didn't double in size. This meant the buns were tasty, but not fluffy so felt more like pastry. What tips for proofing the dough please. I have a radiator and could light the fire for extra heat (I remember my dad used to make normal bread and proof in our airing cupboard as it was always warm due to the water heater) but nowhere warm enough - thanks in advance for your help
Hi Shannon - for molasses, could i used honey or maple syrup instead? Thank you so much for sharing this great recipe. I will definitely make make this soon.
I have used this recipe at least five time now, and it came out perfectly every time. I doubled the recipe today and it came out very well. I am going to try cutting back on yeast next times. Wonder if anyone has experience with doubling the recipe you would share.

Is it okay to substitute the bread flour with All Purpose flour in this recipe? If so, how much milk can I add since I heard that AP flour will be wetter than bread flour?
Thank you very much for the recipe😊
I have the same question.
If use the all purpose flour , how to adjust the ingredients? Thanks
The reason bread flour is used here is because of it's high protein content. It provides a stronger, bouncier dough. Bread flour is also used in a lot of Chinese noodle recipes for the same reason.
If you're going to take the time and effort to make these, I would recommend picking up a bag of bread flour. I don't know about where you live, but here the local grocery chain carries them for 3-4$ for their generic brand, which works just fine.
