Easy Top 9 Allergen Free Banana Rolls Recipe
Another Chinese bakery favorite are banana rolls (or banana cake), a steamed glutinous rice roll that is flavored with banana extract. This easy dessert also happens to also be free of the top 9 allergens. They are called "herng jiu gao" in Cantonese and "xiang jiao gao" in Mandarin.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup glutinous rice flour divided, plus 2 tablespoons
- 1/4 cup rice flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (3 tablespoons for a lower sugar option)
- 3 ounces water room temperature, plus 1 tablespoon
- 2 teaspoons banana extract
- 1 teaspoon neutral cooking oil plus more to oil a pie plate, generic cooking oil
Notes
- This recipe makes 4 rolls. I've doubled the recipe to make 8 rolls. I can also triple the recipe to make 12 rolls but I steam the batter for 20 minutes to be sure it's cooked though (poke with a fork and it should come out clean).
