Chewy Coconut Bibingka (Filipino Rice Cake)

Filipino - World Cuisine

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.
