Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb glutinous rice flour or mochiko
  • 2 cups (416g) brown sugar packed
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup butter melted
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut cream or coconut milk
  • 4 bananas mashed, very ripe (spotted)
  • 2 bananas sliced lengthwise. optional
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt
  • butter or oil for greasing the baking pan

Equipment

  • 1 9x13 inch rectangular baking dish This recipe fits in a 9x13 but feel free to use whatever else might fit

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375℉
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss in 4 peeled ripe bananas and mash them. Add the eggs and mash until fully integrated.
  3. Add coconut milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together the dry ingredients: glutinous rice flour, baking powder, brown sugar, cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Feel free to pass these ingredients through a sieve if they seem clumpy.
  5. Pour the mixed dry ingredients into the wet mixture and stir, stir, stir until everything is one uniform consistency. Break up any clumps that might have formed.
  6. Grease your baking dish and pour the batter in. I used a 9x13 dish. Be sure to use something large enough to hold it all.
  7. (Optional) After the batter has settled, slice two more bananas length wise and lay them across the top. You can slice them any way you want but I enjoyed doing it this way.
  8. Bake in the oven at 375℉ for 50-60 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Remove from the oven and let it cool. Slice into squares and enjoy!
