Wingko Babat is one of the Indonesian traditional desserts made from mixture glutinous rice flour, grated coconut and coconut milk.
What brought me comes up with the idea of making this cake was because I’ve got called from an Indonesian friend yesterday, we were talking about those oriental foods and cake that we had earlier last year when I was in Jakarta, I remembered one of my friend always drives us in the morning for those street breakfast food, we have a favorite Wingko Babat cake spot, sometimes we had to drive early in the morning, otherwise those cake would be gone by 8am in the morning.
After talking to my friend, I’m so craving!imagine eating those cake.
And yupe!! No choice, I have to make it myself.
I’ve never thought that I would ever made this cake by myself, and after I googled some online recipes, I found out that is so easy to make, seriously! Just mix everything into a smooth batter, pour it into aluminum pan or cake pan and bake until cooked.
As a coconut lovers, I’m so nuts about this desserts.
For all the ingredients, they are so easy to find in any store. Most of these ingredients I bought them from Walmart, glutinous rice flour and frozen shredded coconut are easier to find in any store this time already.
As always I like to post following pictures and instructions in most of my recipes and also some instant instructions at the end of my blog, because some people don’t really like reading too much and prefer to just get to the recipe.
Starting with place the dry ingredients in a big mixer bowl,
And whisk all together.
Continue with adding one by one wet ingredients.
First wet ingredient I add in a tbsp of butter, then I mix them well before I add in the next wet ingredients.
Next, add in vanilla extract.
Mix them well.
And...add in coconut milk, for some people they just like to add in all at the same time.
But for me, I’d prefer to add in a bit by bit, and mix it slowly, isn’t a big deal though.
Last, add in an egg.
mix well until become smooth batter.
ok,
finish with the batter.
Get ready the aluminum pan, pan cake, or dish bake. You can neither use one of them and line it with parchment paper.
Pour the batter into the aluminum pan.
Brush it with egg yolk all over.
Then, sprinkles them with some sesame seeds all over.
And... ready to get in to the oven! 😁

The cake is ready to serve! 😋
