BINGKA LABU/ BAKED PUMPKIN CAKE GF

Bingka Labu (Baked Pumpkin Cake GF)  is a traditional recipe, often served during breakfast or as a tea time snack.  Normally made with wheat flour and coconut milk either steamed or baked without any leaving agents.

Here is my first attempt using gluten free flour ( rice flour and cornflour) and much lower sugar but you can also  use wheat flour.  After all, it doesn't effect the taste of this bite size kuih.

When preparing the pumpkin puree, don't discard the seeds, toast them in a microwave or oven and use it as a topping..

My family thought it was delicious and I'm so pleased with the result of my experiment.

GLUTEN FREE CHOCOLATE BITES

For wheat free and gluten free lovers, these  Gluten Free Chocolate Bites are for you. I love to experiment with gluten flour although none in my family was diagnosed with celiac disease.

Made with  3 types of  flour, one can't really tell the difference, it tasted almost the same but  the texture was not as smooth compared with one using wheat flour. You can also use store bought  gluten free flour or mix your own  that works best for your needs.

Easily turned  them  into bars by using 8 x 8 in pan.   Do omit the yogurt if you're allergic  to dairy and use total 1/2 cup of oil for these Gluten Free Chocolate Bites recipe.

SOY MILK JELLY

A nutritious and refreshing  dessert made with soy milk. I had use a store bought and mildly sweetened soy milk but if you can get hold of unsweetened ones that is so much better.

Also added about a cup of  sliced canned peaches but this is optional, feel free to choose other fruit of your choice. This fruit enhance the flavor and make it prettier too.  Serve your guest with a beautiful  jelly set in a smaller jelly mould.

Soy milk can be a healthy alternative to diary milk for people who are lactose-intolerant or vegan.

ONION PANCAKE

These batter based  savory Onion Pancake are quick and convenient to make using simple ingredients commonly found in your kitchen.

This straight forward recipe  was comforting  and  can be consumed immediately after it has been prepared. I had used milk to obtain softer pancake but you can also  use water or other non dairy milk such as almond milk, rice milk. soy milk  to mix the batter.

Addition of onion makes this Onion Pancake  subtly sweet and  ideally goes well with a bowl of spicy gravy or chutney of your choice.

BANANA YEAST TARTLET

Bread baking  really makes my day. I had tried all sort of yeast bread but the most requested  was a sweet bread.

This time, making Banana Yeast Tartlet,  using  a yeast raised dough and filled with banana baked in muffin pan. Actually you can use any filling you like. Make sure to grease your muffin pan  or spray with non stick cooking spray for easy removal.

It is advisable to check after 15 minutes of baking since each  individual oven varies.  If the edges start turning golden brown, that is the right time to remove from the oven.

Banana Yeast Tartlet was  incredibly  good, addictive and  comforting! .
