Steps

1

Mix the ground pork (using both coarse and fine grind for the best texture) with all the seasonings. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours to marinate.
2

Finely chop the green onions and set aside. Dissolve the brown sugar in hot water to make brown sugar water. Spread white sesame seeds evenly on a plate.
3

Let the frozen scallion pancakes come to room temperature and soften. Place some pork filling in the center of each pancake, then top with chopped green onions. Gather the edges to the center and seal, like making a bun. Brush the top with brown sugar water, then dip in white sesame seeds to coat.
4

Place the buns in the air fryer. Cook at 356°F (180°C) for 20 minutes, then at 392°F (200°C) for 5 minutes. Serve hot and enjoy.
