Creamy Corn Steamed Buns

These delightful steamed corn flour nests are a unique and tasty treat, perfect for a light snack or sweet bite. Made with a simple blend of corn flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, and milk, the dough comes together easily before being shaped into adorable nest-like pieces by hand. The gentle steaming process ensures a soft, fluffy texture while preserving the delicate sweetness. What makes this recipe special is the fun, hands-on shaping technique—each bite-sized nest is carefully pressed and rotated to create its signature form. Steamed to perfection in just 12-15 minutes, these tender morsels are light yet satisfying, with a subtle corn flavor enhanced by a touch of sugar. Easy to make and even more enjoyable to eat, these steamed nests are a charming addition to any snack time or tea break. Serve them warm for the best texture and enjoy their comforting, homemade goodness!
