Chocolate filled cassava buns (or cassava Pain au Chocolat)







Chocolate filled Cassava buns

For the sake of change, in this recipe, I’m introducing cassava buns as an alternative recipe for the French Pain au Chocolat. According to studies, cassava can help reduce inflammation and promote the beneficial bacteria in our guts. These fluffy and easy-to-make cassava chocolate-filled buns is truly a delight that you’ll definitely love!

 

Ingredients

400g mashed cassava

2 Eggs

1 tbsp. of sugar

9g of yeast

1/2 tsp of salt

50ml vegetable oil

300g all-purpose flour


Directions

Use a large, but handy knife to peel the cassava.

Then dice it and boil it thoroughly.

Mash the cooked cassava, add all the ingredients and mix with flour. Knead well by hand to form a ball (If the dough is so sticky, coat your hands with oil/flour and occasionally add more flour to the dough). Cover it with a plastic film, and a towel and leave it to rest for an hour. 

Now, take off small parts of the dough, then on a separate flat plate, lay on flour, and pat the balls down into flat rounds. Then, sprinkle chocolate chips in the middle and shape them into small roll buns and transfer them to the baking tray. Continue with the same process until the dough is over. Leave to rest again for about half an hour.

When the dough has risen enough, Brush the buns with a mixture of milk and egg yolks.

Bake at 350F for about 30 minutes until golden brown then serve with tea or coffee.
