Step 1

Preheat oven to 350˚F. Grease two 8 inch cake pans with non-stick coconut oil spray.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together glutinous rice flour, baking powder, and sea salt.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together coconut milk, maple syrup, and melted coconut oil.

Step 4

Add wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix until combined. The batter's consistency is perfect when it flows off a whisk or spatula in ribbons.

Step 5

If using a filling, pour ¼ of batter into the bottom of each prepared pan. Spread evenly. If using filling, dot over batter. Pour ¼ more batter on top of filling and spread evenly. If not using any filling, distribute batter evenly between the two prepared pans. Sprinkle coconut flakes on top.

Step 6

Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until golden brown.

Step 7

Cool in pans for a few minutes before turning out onto plate. It should fall out very easily. Use kitchen scissors for clean cuts.
