How To Make Bibingka (Filipino Rice Cake) Recipe
Looking for a sweet and salty treat? Then this bibingka or Filipino rice cake, made of a soft base and salted duck egg, is perfect for you.
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- ¾ cup rice flour, plain and not glutinous
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup coconut milk
- ½ cup water
- 2 cups processed cheese, chilled, grated, divided
- 2 salted eggs, sliced into wedges
- cooking spray
To Serve:
- 1 tbsp coconut, freshly grated
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Grease the 8-inch cake tin with cooking spray and line both the bottom and sides with parchment paper. Brush the parchment paper with softened butter all over. Set aside.
-
In a bowl, sift together both flours, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
-
Using a stand mixer, combine butter and sugar. Cream until pale and fluffy.
-
Add the eggs, water, and coconut milk. Continue creaming.
-
Fold in the sifted flour first into the coconut milk mixture, followed by half of the cheese, until evenly incorporated. Transfer mixture into the prepared cake tin.
-
Transfer to the oven and bake for roughly 20 to 25 minutes. The cake batter will still be very liquid but partially set on top.
-
Sprinkle remaining cheese and salt-cured eggs on top. Return to the oven and continue baking for roughly 20 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean and its top turns golden.
-
Transfer the cake onto cooling racks and immediately brush the top with more softened butter. Allow to cool briefly in the cake tin before releasing from the mould.
-
Slice into desired portions and serve with grated coconut.
