Guokui (traditional Chinese: 鍋盔; simplified Chinese: 锅盔; pinyin: guōkuī),[1] literally "pot helmet", is a kind of bing (flatbread) made from flour originating from Shaanxi cuisine.

The dish is said to have been invented during the Tang dynasty by a laborer who cooked flatbread in his iron helmet over a wood fire.

[2] There are many different versions including Shaanxi, Jingzhou (Hubei), Henan, Sichuan, and Gansu.

Hailing from Jingzhou, Hubei, in this style the dough of flour, water, yeast and sugar is stuffed with either a savoury filling like chicken, beef, and pickled vegetables, or a sweet filling like red bean paste.

In Shaanxi, a guokui is round in shape, about a foot long in diameter, an inch in thickness, and weighs about 2.5 kg.
