Prepare Steamed Bao Buns as directed; do not roll 2-1/2-inch rounds into 4-inch rounds. Instead, use a rolling pin to gently roll each round once from front to back of roll to create an oval. Fold ovals in half and place on flatted muffin cup paper liners. Let rest in warm place 30 minutes; transfer buns on paper liners to bottom of steamer basket and steam as directed.
