🥗Healthier: homemade custard

💰Cheaper: vanilla pudding mix

Homemade custard is fresher, while pudding mix is often cheaper.

Mix warm milk with sugar and yeast in a bowl; let sit until frothy, about 5-10 minutes.

Combine flour, salt, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl.

Add the yeast mixture and melted butter to the flour mixture; stir until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 5-7 minutes.

Cover the dough with a damp cloth; let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Prepare the custard filling by mixing custard powder with water and sugar in a saucepan; cook over medium heat until thickened, stirring constantly.

Remove from heat and let cool; stir in powdered sugar and vanilla extract.

Divide the risen dough into equal pieces; flatten each piece into a circle.

Place a spoonful of custard filling in the center of each circle; fold the edges over to seal.

Shape each bun into a smooth ball and place on parchment paper.

Steam the buns in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 10-12 minutes until fluffy and cooked through.

Serve warm and enjoy the sweet custard surprise inside.
