Bibingka - Coconut Rice Cakes
Description
This recipe mixes rice flour with baking powder and salt, then combines it with eggs, granulated sugar, coconut milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. The batter is smooth and poured into muffin tins, which are then baked at 375°F (190°C) for about 18-23 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Because rice flour is the base, these cakes have a distinct texture differing from wheat flour cakes—light yet slightly chewy with a moist crumb accented by the coconut milk’s richness. The mild sweetness balances the natural flavors of coconut and vanilla.
Bibingka can be enjoyed as a snack or dessert and is traditionally served warm but tastes good at room temperature. Allowing the cakes to cool in the pan briefly before transferring helps maintain their shape and texture.
Ingredients
- 2 cups rice flour firmly packed
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 4 egg room temperature
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 1 can coconut milk 13.5 ounces
- 2 tablespoons butter melted / cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
*if using unsalted butter then add 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 375F (190C). Lightly grease and flour 12 (6 large and 6 small) muffin tin or line with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl sift together the rice flour, baking powder and salt.
- In a large bowl beat the eggs, then add the sugar, coconut milk, butter and vanilla and combine well.
- Slowly add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and whisk until well combined and smooth. Divide the batter evenly into the prepared tins.
