Ingredients needed and their measurements:

---

• 250 grams of rice flour
• 100 grams of grated coconut
• 200 grams of brown sugar
• 5 pandan leaves (to make natural pandan paste)
  You can also use 5 drops of ready-to-use pandan paste, by mixing it in water before adding it to the dough
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 3 tbsp cooking oil

How to make:

---

First: heat the steamer, prepare a heat-resistant container. Add rice flour. Steam the rice flour for 20-25 minutes

---

---

Second: cut the pandan leaves to make it easier to blend, add 120-150 ml of water. Then strain to separate the pandan leaf pulp from the pandan water. (For a more intense color, you can also add pandan paste again to the natural pandan paste, if you have both)

---

---

Third: prepare a container, pour rice flour into it to make the dough. Add salt. Stir well. Pour pandan water into the flour little by little until the dough is granular

---

---

Fourth: strain the dough by stirring and pressing it to get a smooth texture. Then comb the brown sugar

---

---

Fifth: prepare the mold. Grease the mold with cooking oil. Then put the flour mixture into the mold. Add 1 tsp of brown sugar or enough in the middle, put the dough again on top until full. Smooth out. Do the same until all the dough is used up. Do not over-compact it so that the results are not hard.

---

---

Sixth: steam for 20-25 minutes or until cooked. Remove and remove the cake from the mold. Next, prepare the grated coconut, sprinkle 1/2 tsp of salt. Then steam the grated coconut in the same oven for 10 minutes.

Note: for grated coconut, it can be steamed, or it can be served immediately. It's just that if steamed coconut is not easily stale. But for one meal it is tastier without steaming it is fresher

---

---

Seventh: arrange the cake on a serving plate, sprinkle with grated coconut and granulated sugar. Ready to serve. Good luck, friends!

There is no doubt, my homemade bamboo putu cake tastes very special, namely sweet, savory, legit, the texture is soft in the mouth when we bite it and also fragrant.

---

---

However, there is also a white bamboo putu cake without pandan leaf coloring or artificial coloring (pandan paste). But I prefer the light green one. Although my homemade cake is a bit less green, it tastes delicious. It's just a matter of taste, you can add more coloring, so that the color is brighter. That's all for today's cake recipe.
