- 1 cup flour
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- 1 egg
- 100 ml evaporated or fresh milk
- ¼ cup water
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup grated cheese
- strip of cheese for topping
INSTRUCTIONS:
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar and baking powder.
- Add the milk and egg and mix with hand or stand mixer at medium speed only until batter becomes smooth.
- Add the water, butter and vanilla extract and mix well for a minute or two. Lastly add the grated cheese and fold in slowly using a spatula or spoon.
- Grease each mold with butter and fill the molds with batter up to ¾ full. Add a strip of cheese on top of the batter.
- Place the molds in the steamer and steam for about 10 to 12 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- While mixing the ingredients, avoid using high speed of the mixer or the Puto would rise too much and become airy.
- You may also mix by hand using a whisk but also at moderate speed.
- While steaming, I place a cheese cloth or clean kitchen towel in between steamer racks and the top cover to avoid water from dripping to the batter.
- Just double (or triple) the recipe to double the yield.
- Silicon cupcake molds can also be used.
