Easy Bibingka

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 F. Wash banana leaves and wipe dry. Line a 9 inch round baking pan with banana leaves, using two or more leaves to overlap if necessary.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients: rice flour, all-purpose flour, salt, sugar and baking powder. Make well in the center and pour the wet ingredients: melted butter, coconut milk, milk and the beaten eggs,

Step 3

Briefly beat everything with a wire whisk to combine. The mixture should be lump-free and smooth. Pour the thin batter into the prepared pan and bake at 375 F for 15 minutes. Take the pan out of the oven and arrange the salted eggs and cheese on top. Bake for 20 minutes more, or until golden on top. During the last 5 minutes, tent the pan with aluminum foil to prevent over-browning. Top with dried coconut flakes.
