Babingka Filipino Coconut cakes

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups/230g Dainty Royal Rice
  • 2 Tbsp Baking Powder
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 4 large Eggs
  • 1 cup/250g White Sugar
  • 1 can/400ml full fat Coconut Milk
  • 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter, melted and room temperature
  • 1 tsp Vanilla

Topping

  • 1/2 cup / 125mL Whipping Cream, whipped to soft peaks
  • 1 1/2 cups Strawberries, washed, hulled and quartered
  • 2 tbsp Raw Cane Sugar (or Brown Sugar)

Preparation

1

Place the rice in a high speed blender, and blend the rice until it becomes a very fine flour, about 1 minute. It must feel fine when you rub it between your fingers, not gritty. If it needs to blend more do so for another minute. When done, allow to cool for a minute.

2

Tap the rice flour through a fine mesh strainer to remove any hard pieces.

3

Preheat oven to 375*. Line a 12 cup muffin tin with with cupcake liners.

4

In a large mixing bowl, mix together the rice flour, baking powder and salt.

5

In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, coconut milk, butter and vanilla until well combined.

6

Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and whisk together until smooth and thick. It should resemble a slightly thinner pancake batter.

7

Divide the mixture among the muffin tin liners. NOTE: they will be very full. Bake for 18-10 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

8

To serve, top the cooled cakes with a generous dollop of whipped cream, spoonful of strawberries and sprinkle of sugar!
