Khao nom babin - Oven baked sticky rice cake

Khao nom babin is a coconut pancake made either of ground rice or rice flour. In Thailand you will sometimes find it coated with eggs. I propose you a recipe based on rice flour and oven baked instead of pan-fried.

For 4 to 6 persons

Ingredients

200 g of glutinous rice flour

50 g of rice flour

100 g dried grated coconut

150 g sugar

¼ teaspoon of salt

100 ml of coconut milk

Method

In a large bowl, combine the flours, coconut, sugar and salt. Moisten with the coconut milk and 150 ml of water and mix until a uniform dough is obtained.

Transfer to a baking pan (you can use a pie ring lined with parchment paper) and bake for 40 minutes in a preheated oven at 180°C.

You can coat the surface of the cake with neutral vegetable oil halfway through baking to prevent it from drying out.
