So now that I’ve opened up the steamed bun floodgate, I can’t help myself! Today I’m sharing a recipe for Steamed Peanut Butter and Jelly Buns (aka, PB&J Man) over on The Family Kitchen. These steamed buns are a fun new twist on the classic peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and would make a fantastic addition to a packed lunch on Valentine’s Day. Even better? They’re even easier to make than the nikuman (Japanese steamed pork buns) I wrote about in my last post. For these, you make a simple bread dough in your bread machine. Already easier, right? In addition, this dough is easier to work with than the classic steamed bun dough, making it so that your kids can even help you make these if you want! So head on over and grab my recipe for PB&J Man, but just be forewarned that these steamed buns are highly addictive!

Mmm…these look perfect especially with the peanut butter in it :)
Perfect little snack buns. These will bring out the inner child and a smile in everyone.
This is such a great way to introduce a ‘new’ food in a familiar way for some of the pickier eaters! Who doesn’t love PB&J??
Yum! What a great idea! My kids will love these. Do you think they would freeze well?
@Krista@BudgetGourmetMom.com, Hi Krista, Yes, you can freeze these! Then just re-steam them to defrost!
I seriously want to take a cooking class from you. I’m always so impressed by your recipes. Happy Friday!
Oooooh these look like fun!!!!
Hi! I stumbled into your beautiful blog while surfing around…lovely! Full of wonderful recipes to follow! I have recently made steam buns too, with red bean paste filling and it was delicious!
This looks like such a great school lunch treat!!! Do you know if you can substitute wheat flour or half wheat/half white?
