Sweet Corn Mantou (steamed buns) ?????

My daughter requested some plain mantou (steamed buns) as she prefer raw and plain steamed buns rather than with filling like normal baozi. Anyway, i didn't make the very raw mantau without any flavours, instead i added some sweet corn cream into it as inspired from a similar sweet corn baozi that i tasted earlier.








I feel the corn taste is not strong enough, if you like to try this recipe, you can increase sweet corn cream a bit and reduce milk at the same time.
