A tasty Vietnamese honeycomb cake with a unique soft and chewy texture, flavored with pandan.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup rice flour
  • 1/2 cup tapioca starch
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 teaspoon pandan extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a round or bundt pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, combine the rice flour, tapioca starch, and baking powder; whisk to break up lumps.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar until pale and frothy. Add coconut milk and pandan extract, and mix well.
  4. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until smooth.
  5. Let the batter rest for about 30 minutes.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 40-50 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Slice and serve.

Notes

Don’t overmix the batter. Use room temperature ingredients for best results. An accurate oven temperature is crucial.
