Bibingka/Filipino Coconut Rice Cake




Bibingka/Filipino Coconut Rice Cake

Coconut rice cakes is a treat for all coconut lovers. Bibingka is sweet, with irresistible flavor and taste.I love this recipe because it is so easy to make.Sweet rice flour and coconut milk makes this cake spongy and light. The crumble topping is crispy and sweet with coconut and palm sugar. I changed the original recipe slightly by adding one cup of all purpose flour,but you can make this is with sweet rice flour.Filipino coconut cakes are usually made in a pan with banana leaves lining.Since I did not have banana leaves I used the regular parchment paper.Try this, you will surely love it.

All purpose flour- 1 cup
Baking powder- 1 1/2 tsp
Salt- 1/2 tsp
Sugar- 1 cup
