How to Make Bungeoppang (Traditional & Healthy Version)
Bungeoppang (붕어빵) is a beloved traditional Korean street snack, instantly recognizable for its charming fish shape and sweet red bean filling. Originating in the early 20th century, Bungeoppang is especially popular during the colder months and is often enjoyed as a comforting treat while strolling through bustling markets or neighborhood alleys. The crispy, golden exterior and soft, mildly sweet interior offer a delightful contrast in textures, making this snack a favorite among all ages. Korean food culture deeply values the balance of flavors and textures, and Bungeoppang fits beautifully into this ethos. While not a banchan (side dish) itself, Bungeoppang is commonly enjoyed alongside other Korean snacks and is sometimes paired with warm drinks or even a small portion of kimchi for a playful, tangy twist. Its key ingredient, sweetened red bean paste (pat), is a staple in many Korean desserts and is celebrated for its natural sweetness and nutritional value. Bungeoppang is not only delicious but also a nod to Korea's rich culinary history and communal spirit, making it a perfect choice for those looking to experience authentic and health-conscious Korean cuisine.
재료(2 medium-sized Bungeoppang per serving 기준)
- 1 cup All-purpose flour (밀가루)
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking powder (베이킹파우더)
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt (소금)
- 2 tablespoons Sugar (설탕)
- 3/4 cup Low-fat milk (우유, use oat or soy milk for vegan)
- 1 large Egg (계란)
- 1/2 cup Red bean paste (팥앙금, use unsweetened for healthier option)
- 1 tablespoon Neutral oil (식용유, for brushing the pan)
- 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract (바닐라 익스트랙, optional for aroma) - 선택 사항
조리 방법
- 1
In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
3 minutes
Sift the flour for a lighter, crispier batter.
- 2
In a separate bowl, beat the egg lightly. Add low-fat milk (or plant-based milk) and vanilla extract (if using). Mix well.
2 minutes
Ensure all wet ingredients are at room temperature for even mixing.
- 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix.
2 minutes
A few lumps in the batter are okay—this prevents toughness.
- 4
Preheat a Bungeoppang pan (fish-shaped mold) over medium heat. Brush both sides with a thin layer of neutral oil.
3 minutes
A silicone brush helps spread the oil evenly and reduces excess fat.
