Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 ¾ cups rice flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon instant yeast
  • 2 ½ cups coconut cream
  • ½ cup thick coconut milk

Banana Sauce Ingredients

  • 1 cup coconut cream
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2/3 cup palm sugar
  • A pinch of salt
  • 2 pandan leaves
  • 2 ripe bananas mashed
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch dissolved in 2 tablespoons water cornstarch slurry

Instructions

  • Combine rice flour, salt, sugar and yeast in a large bowl.

  • Meanwhile, let’s make the banana sauce.
  • In a saucepan, combine coconut cream, water, palm sugar, salt, pandan and bananas. Bring to a boil and cook on medium-high heat for 10 minutes.
  • Remove pandan leaves and add the cornstarch slurry.
  • Continue to simmer until the sauce is thickened, about 10 minutes
  • Heat a skillet and lightly coat it with oil.
  • Heat a skillet and lightly coat it with a little oil. Spray a 1/4 measuring cup with non stick spray. Scoop batter into this cup and place on hot skillet.
  • Using a wet spatula, flatten the batter into a pancake. Cook on medium heat until golden brown on both sides. Repeat until all the batter is finished.
  • Serve with warm banana sauce.

Notes

  • Use pandan extract or pandan paste if you cannot source pandan leaves.
  • Make sure to use regular rice flour; not sticky rice/ glutinous rice flour.
