A very coconutty and chewy rice flour dessert. Traditionally, this is baked in banana leaves, but my family prefers the crispy edges, which is why I use a sheet pan. I have been testing out several types of chewy desserts using rice flour, and this seems to be the favorite.

This was very good and texture came out perfect. I followed the recipe as written except reduced the sugar to about 1/2 cup because I was worried it was going to be too sweet with the macapuno strings. Also lined the pan for easy clean up. Thanks for sharing! Read More

This was very yummy! I followed the recipe except I only had one jar of macapuno strings. With only one jar, I may reduce the baking time to 35 or 40 minutes next time -- maybe it would be a tad bit less dry. Also, I thought the batter would spill out of a sheet pan, but it didn't. I did, however, line the pan with parchment paper for easy clean up. Read More

Decent recipe but disappointed after baking on a sheet pan as directed, as the bibingka turned out much too thin. Tried the recipe again in a 13 x 9 pan and it yielded a much better (and albeit more traditional) result. Read More
