Ingredients

  • Vegetable oil
  • 1 ½ cups sweet rice flour
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • ¼ cup caster sugar
  • 1 ½ cups coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • ½ cup roasted peanuts, finely chopped
  • ½ cup coconut flakes, coarsely chopped
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp melted coconut oil
  • 1 cup coconut flakes, coarsely chopped

Steps

  1. Brush a flat-bottomed cake pan with some vegetable oil to prevent sticking, and set aside.
  2. Prepare your steamer with water and bring to a boil.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together the sweet rice flour, cornstarch, caster sugar, coconut milk, and melted coconut oil until smooth.
  4. Transfer the mixture to the prepared cake pan, and gently tap on a table to distribute it evenly.
  5. Once the water in the steamer is boiling, steam the dough mixture for 15 minutes over high heat. Let it cool completely.
  6. Make the filling by combining the chopped peanuts, coconut flakes, sugar and 1 tablespoon coconut oil. Set it aside.
  7. Once the dough cools, transfer it onto a large piece of wax paper and cut it into 16 equal squares.
  8. Take a piece of dough, add about 1 tablespoon of filling in the center, and close the dough around the filling, pinching it closed. Roll in the coconut flakes to coat.
