Bibingka Filipino rice cake served

Bibingka

Bibingka is a traditional Filipino rice cake that is especially popular during the Christmas season. Traditionally, it is baked in a clay pot lined with banana leaves, which gives it a unique, slightly smoky flavor. The combination of rice flour and coconut milk makes the cake soft, light, and subtly sweet. It's often topped with cheese and shredded coconut to add a richer flavor profile. Bibingka is a perfect choice for breakfast, a snack, or dessert, enjoyed with a cup of hot coffee or tea. The aroma and taste of freshly baked Bibingka provide a truly festive experience.
