Best Served With: Loomie Steamed Bun Mold, Silicone Bib, Silicone Plate
✨ Why We Love It
These soft, milky steamed buns are perfect for babies just beginning their journey with solids. The texture is pillowy, slightly chewy, and easy to hold — ideal for little hands learning to self-feed.
Plus, they’re made with only 3 gentle ingredients, and the result is as cute as it is nutritious!

🍳 How to Make It
-
Activate the Yeast
Mix warm milk with yeast. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes until slightly foamy. -
Form the Dough
Gradually add flour to the milk mixture and knead until soft and smooth (about 5–7 minutes). Let rest for 40–60 minutes in a warm place until doubled in size. -
Shape the Buns
Divide dough into small, baby-sized balls. Press into your Loomie steamed bun mold for adorable shapes (bunny, bear, star — your choice!). -
Steam
Place buns on parchment paper inside a steamer. Steam for 12–15 minutes over medium heat. Let cool before serving.
👶 Feeding Tips
-
These buns are soft and tear easily — great for baby-led weaning (BLW).
-
Cut into strips or halves if baby is just starting finger foods.
-
Avoid adding sugar or salt — baby’s taste buds are developing naturally.
💡 Parent Pro Tip
Make a big batch and freeze the extras! Reheat by steaming for 3–5 minutes.
They also make adorable lunchbox items for toddlers and siblings.
