Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Glutinous Rice Flour
- 1 cup Water
- 1 cup Taro, peeled and cubed
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar (or honey)
- 2 Eggs
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/4 cup Milk (or plant-based milk)
Instructions
- Peel and chop taro into small cubes and steam until tender for about 15-20 minutes. Mash until smooth and stir in sugar to taste.
- In a bowl, combine glutinous rice flour and water; stir until a smooth batter forms. Let rest for 30 minutes.
- Whisk together eggs, sugar, baking powder, and milk until well combined. Stir in the flour until just mixed.
