The incomparably soft cornmeal and red date cake is sweet and fluffy and more fragrant than bread! Self-use formula tried and tested!

The benefits of coarse grains are well known, needless to say, but my children and husband don't like to eat, they feel that coarse grains are difficult to swallow, and they choke on eating, I believe that many mothers will also have such troubles! In order to let the child eat some coarse grains, the old mother really took great pains and tried her best, believe me, the cornmeal and red date cake shared today can easily solve this problem. The key to the poor taste of coarse grains is that the dough is difficult to rise, in fact, it is not necessary to require too much content to make coarse grains for children, and adding some is enough for children's intake needs. Add some all-purpose flour to the cornmeal cake I shared today, and you can make the dough triple in size with the method I shared! The hair cake made in this way is really very soft, and there is no burden to eat at all, and the addition of red dates makes the hair cake taste sweet, especially to cater to the taste of children. Sweet and soft, whether it is a staple food or a breakfast, I usually make more, cut into small pieces and seal them to freeze, when eating from the refrigerator freezer to re-steam, it is very convenient!

Cooking Instructions

Put the cornmeal into the basin first, pour boiling water while stirring with chopsticks, boiling water can make the cake taste particularly soft, keep stirring until the temperature drops to hand temperature, add yeast powder and caster sugar and stir well, temperature and sugar can help fermentation
Add an egg and stir well until it becomes a thin paste
Pour in all-purpose flour, stir into a flocculent shape with chopsticks, and then add water to knead into a dough, water can be added slowly in small amounts and many times to avoid the dough being too soft
Cut the jujube into small cubes, add it to the dough and knead it again, and the cake dough is completed
Roll out the dough into thick slices 1.5-2 cm thick and place it in a bowl to ferment, brushing the bowl with a thin layer of oil to facilitate demolding
I use a yogurt maker to help fermentation, the temperature and humidity are relatively low in winter, this method can help rapid fermentation, add a small amount of warm water to the yogurt maker, put in the dough, choose the temperature of 37 degrees, it only takes half an hour to ferment to 2 times the size
Preheat the steamer in advance, put in the fermented dough, steam in the pot with boiling water for 25 minutes, and simmer for 5 minutes
The steamed cake is three times the size of the original dough, and the bowl can be easily removed by turning it upside down
Cut into small cubes, the inside of the hair cake is full of pores, pinch it and rebound quickly, it is really fragrant and soft, and it is super delicious to eat while it is hot~
Cut it into small pieces, seal it and freeze it, and take it out of the freezer compartment to re-steam it when you eat it, which is especially convenient!
