- 100 g Rice Flour (fine white rice flour)
- 200 g Granulated Sugar (white granulated)
- 1 tsp Baking Powder

Instructions
Preheat Oven and Warm Pan
Set the oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the bundt pan inside to warm while you prepare the batter.
Time: PT5M
Temperature: 350°F
Measure Dry Ingredients
Weigh tapioca starch, rice flour, granulated sugar, and baking powder on a digital scale. Sift them together into a bowl to remove lumps.
Time: PT5M
Heat Coconut Milk Mixture
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the full can of coconut milk, sugar, and salt. Whisk continuously until the sugar fully dissolves and the mixture is smooth, then remove from heat.
Time: PT7M
Temperature: medium heat
Cool Coconut Milk
Transfer the hot coconut milk mixture to a shallow container and place it in the refrigerator until cool (about 10‑15 minutes).
Time: PT15M
Temperature: 4°C
Prepare Eggs
Crack six eggs into a large bowl. Using a fork, gently run through the yolks and whites to break them up without creating a frothy mixture.
Time: PT2M
Combine Wet Ingredients
Pour the cooled coconut milk mixture into the beaten eggs, add pandan extract, and stir gently until the batter turns a uniform green color.
Time: PT3M
Mix Dry and Wet
Add the sifted dry ingredients to the wet mixture in the large bowl. Using the wire whisk, stir just until everything is incorporated and no dry pockets remain.
Time: PT4M
Sieve Batter
Pass the batter through the fine mesh sieve into the bowl, using a spatula to press through and eliminate lumps caused by tapioca starch.
Time: PT3M
Melt Coconut Oil
Microwave the coconut oil for 30 seconds until liquid, then stir it into the batter until fully incorporated.
Time: PT1M
Temperature: medium heat
Grease Pan
Remove the warmed bundt pan from the oven and generously spray with butter spray, ensuring all crevices are coated.
Time: PT2M
Bake the Cake
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and place it on the center rack of the oven. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 45 minutes.
Time: PT45M
Temperature: 350°F
Check Doneness
Insert a toothpick or chopstick into the thickest part of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done; otherwise bake for additional 5‑10 minutes.
Time: PT5M
Rest in Oven
Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cake rest inside for 20‑30 minutes to finish cooking and set the honeycomb structure.
Time: PT25M
Temperature: 350°F
Cool and Unmold
Place the pan on a cooling rack, then invert onto a serving plate. Gently tap to release the cake. Allow to cool completely before slicing.
Time: PT10M
