Hotteok

Hotteok is a delicious and warm Korean street food snack that features a crispy outer layer with a sweet, gooey filling. This gluten-free version retains the authentic flavors while catering to those with dietary restrictions.

Ingredients

• Gluten-free all-purpose flour - 200 grams
• Warm water - 150 ml
• Active dry yeast - 5 grams
• Sugar - 30 grams
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Vegetable oil - 2 tablespoons
• Brown sugar - 50 grams
• Chopped walnuts or peanuts - 30 grams
• Cinnamon powder - 1 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, warm water, active dry yeast, 30 grams of sugar, and salt. Mix until a smooth dough forms.
2. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
3. In another bowl, mix together the brown sugar, chopped walnuts or peanuts, and cinnamon powder to create the filling.
4. Once the dough has risen, divide it into four equal portions and shape each portion into a ball.
5. Flatten each ball into a disc and place a spoonful of the filling in the center. Fold the edges over the filling and pinch to seal tightly.
6. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
7. Place two filled dough balls in the skillet, seam side down, and cook for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
8. Flip the hotteok and add a little water (about 30 ml) to the skillet. Cover with a lid to steam for an additional 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
9. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling, adding more oil as needed.
10. Serve warm and enjoy your gluten-free hotteok!
