Ingredients




2 cups Rice Flour
2 large Eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons Baking Powder
1 1/2 cups Milk
1 cup White Sugar
1/2 cup Margerine, melted

Preparation

1 In a big mixing bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and sugar. Gradually add in milk, eggs and margarine until completely mixed together. 2 Pour the batter into the cupcake molds until nearly full. 3 Place the cupcake molds into a steamer basket. If you have multiple layers, place a cloth between the trays to avoid water drips. Put enough water to steam, and 1 tbsp of vinegar. Then steam for 20-25 minutes. After steamed remove from tray and mold then serve after the Puto has cooled to touch.

Whoops! I actually tweaked the recipe and used all milk instead of a combo of milk and water. So, just follow the recipe as is without water and just milk. I edited the recipe. Thanks for catching that!

Well, I cut the recipe in half and made them in a mini muffin pan and it made like 22. They didn't have the consistency of the real puto. It somewhat had a texture like mochi and puto mixed together.
