Ingredients
(Makes 4–6 servings)
- 3 ripe bananas (preferably overripe for more sweetness)
- ½ cup rice flour or all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup coconut milk (or any milk of choice)
- 2–3 tablespoons brown sugar or coconut sugar (adjust to taste)
- A pinch of salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract or cinnamon (optional)
- Shredded coconut or sesame seeds, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare Your Steamer
Fill a large pot or steamer with water and bring it to a simmer. Lightly grease small ramekins, silicone molds, or a heatproof dish. - Mash the Bananas
In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Leave a few chunks if you like a bit of texture. - Mix the Batter
Add the flour, coconut milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla (if using) to the mashed bananas. Mix until well combined into a smooth, pourable batter. - Steam the Mixture
Pour the batter into your greased molds or dish. Place them in the steamer, cover with a lid (wrap it in a towel to catch excess condensation), and steam for about 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. - Cool and Serve
Let the steamed banana delight cool slightly before removing from the molds. Sprinkle with shredded coconut or sesame seeds for extra texture and visual appeal. -
