Description

A delicious layered cake made with ube and jackfruit, infused with coconut flavors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Glutinous Rice Flour
  • 1 cup Rice Flour
  • 2 cups Coconut Milk
  • 1 cup Coconut Cream
  • 3/4 cup White Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Ube Halaya
  • 1 cup Jackfruit Purée
  • 1 tbsp Yellow Food Coloring
  • 1 cup Coconut Cream (for latik)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Latik: Simmer coconut cream in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cook until thick and golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. Strain and set aside.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine glutinous rice flour, rice flour, sugar, and salt. Whisk until blended.
  3. Add Coconut Milk: Gradually whisk in the coconut milk until you achieve a smooth batter. Add vanilla extract and stir.
  4. Divide the Batter: Separate the batter into three portions. Stir in ube halaya into one, jackfruit purée into another, and leave the last plain.
  5. Prep the Steamer: Grease a round pan and set up your steamer with boiling water.
  6. Steam the Ube Layer: Pour ube batter into the pan, cover, and steam for 15-20 minutes until set.
  7. Add the Jackfruit Layer: Pour the jackfruit batter over the ube, smooth, and steam for another 15-20 minutes.
  8. Finish with the Plain Layer: Pour in the plain batter and steam for 25-30 minutes.
  9. Cool and Serve: Let the cake cool completely. Invert onto a platter, brush with coconut oil, top with latik, and slice into wedges.
