Puto (Steamed Rice Muffins): White, Purple Yam, And Pandan

Labels: , , , , , ,

Puto Puto

Several of my readers emailed me or left comments requesting for puto recipes. The last time I made white puto was either a year ago (or maybe 4 months ago?). I made pandan flavored puto just once two years ago. Nobody including me liked the pandan and never made them again.

Today I made both puti and ube but not the pandan flavor. The white puto is the recipe that's widely available online which I made with less sugar, and the ube is adapted from Gene Gonzalez's Little Kakanin Book. I had to make several adjustments because different brands of ube powder have different results. One brand was way too sticky which I suspect has sticky rice flour in it so I threw the package away. I'm happy with the ALTA brand I used today with the consistency, color, and natural ube flavor.

Puto Cups

I always line my puto cups with round pieces of banana leaves which I pre-cut and store in airtight bags in the freezer. I thaw them in very hot tap water before using. If using banana leaves line the puto cups and stack the cups pressing slightly to prevent the leaves from springing up specially if the leaves are a bit mature and therefore thicker.

Puto Puti

Puto Puti

2 cups rice flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
¾ cups sugar
a pinch of salt
2 cups coconut milk
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon anise extract, optional
  • Blend flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Add milk and water, and anise extract, if using, mix until smooth. Fill prepared cups 2/3 full and steam in rapidly boiling water for 20 minutes. Serve hot with butter or shredded fresh coconut.
Puto Ube

Puto Ube

½ cup ube powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1½ tablespoons baking powder
½ cup sugar
1¾ cups fresh milk or coconut milk
  • Mix flours, sugar, and baking powder. Add milk and mix until smooth. Fill prepared puto cups 2/3 full. Steam in rapidly boiling water for 20 -25 mintes. Serve hot with butter.
Puto Pandan

Puto Pandan

1 cup cake flour, sifted
½ cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 - 2 pandan leaves, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup + 1 tablespoon water
grated cheese, optional
  • Blend water and pandan leaves in a blender. Strain through a coffee filter. Measure pandan water to 1 cup.
  • Mix cake flour, sugar, and baking powder, add pandan water and stir until smooth.
  • Fill prepared cups ½ full. Top with grated cheese, if desired. Steam in rapidly boiling water for 10 minutes.

Beautiful. I think your home made puto would be great with dinuguan. I'll be going back to this recipe.

Ruy said...

Ok, maybe not the ube puto.
Ube and dinuguan just doesn't seem right.

Sidney said...

One of the culinary discoveries I did in the Philippines!
Another favorite !

Anonymous said...

Wonderful oggi! I have always been very hesitant in attempting to bake anything Filipino--I'm not a very good baker. But these looks so good and so easy. Does steaming count as baking? ;p

Oggi said...

Ruy, ube puto with dinuguan, why not, they might be good together.:)

Sidney, Filipino puto are the best!

Marvin, for an easier puto making, skip the banana leaves and just oil the cups before filling.
You don't have to be a good baker to make excellent puto.:)

Anonymous said...

oh wow. the colors are just fantastic. i bet they taste excellent too :-)

Oggi said...

tipidmeals thanks! Yes the ube and white do taste excellent.:)

anne said...

ei what if am using the bisquick baking mix,how much ube powder should i put?tenks...

Oggi said...

Anne, I have not made ube puto with bisquick. You could perhaps substitute a little less than ½ cup ube powder for 1½ cups of bisquick. Let me know how it turns out.:)

Hello!
Thanks so much for posting a puto recipe online!
I've been searching a long time for a good puto recipe, and this one has a few different ingredients that I think would make this recipe a lot better!

But I'm wondering, the T stands for teaspoon, right? Because a tablespoon of baking powder just seems really odd...

Thank you~~

Anonymous said...

Hello!! My name is Jcka from Lake Stvens,WA. Just copied your Rice Puto recipe. Been making/steaming puto made from Bisquick--thought to upgrade my puto. Benn loning the rice puto taste- Thank you so much for sharing your recipe with us. God Bless and keep on cooking...take care--

Oggi said...

Ashley, sorry for the very late response.
Yes, T is tablespoon. Most recipes for puto has 3 or more teaspoons for the same amount of rice flour, I guess 1 T is just about right.:)

Jcka, thanks and you are welcome.:)

I have read one of the recipes posted online with a photo and the purple color of the supposed to be finished product came out to be green, this is by using the fresh purple yam...will the powder turn green???

Oggi said...

Anonymous, I don't believe puto will turn green using either powdered or fresh/frozen ube because the recipe has only rice or all purpose flour, water and baking powder. The only possible thing I could think of that will result in a green muffin is to mix it with something yellow, say eggs? I'm imagining it will look cool though but it won't be purple yam anymore.:-)

I'm so thankful I've found your recipe in puto with other variations, I would love to try this at home as first timer mom am sure my husband would love it so much, I've been looking this recipe for so long and thank God your my angel, anyway this is my first time I wrote a comment....thank you so much for this recipe..

Anonymous said...

hi, i was just wondering if you use sweet rice flour or just regular rice four. i've been looking for a good puto recipe and i have a good feeling about your recipe.

Oggi said...

Anonymous, regular rice flour. Hope the putos turn out good.:)

Anonymous said...

hello...i try your puto recipe at home my family love it also my friends...am just wondering in making white puto, is it important to use rice flour only or all purpose flour will do?i try all purpose flour but the texture of white puto is like sapin sapin...whats the difference in rice flour to a all purpose flour...will do they differ in texture and the taste?i haven't tried rice flour...

Anonymous said...

i just wanna say thank you so much for the recipe in puto...i tried it at home and my friends love it...am hoping for the reply of my follow up questions there late regarding,all purpose flour and rice flour...

Oggi said...

Anonymous, the difference between rice flour and all-purpose (wheat) flour is gluten, rice does not have gluten. As for the flavor, I have not compared them, although the AP flour has a softer more delicate texture than rice flour when the cakes are steamed, which is puzzling because gluten makes bread chewier when baked...I prefer the flavor and texture of the steamed rice flour puto.

I can only guess the reason the puto using wheat flour had the texture of sapin-sapin is too much liquid or not enough baking powder but I'm not a hundred percent sure.:)

Anonymous said...

hi,oggie its me again ms. anonymous first time mom...i love cooking that's why i love your blog, i learned so much about this recipe in puto,i try the ube flavor puto and it taste good even the pandan but i never tried using fresh leaves instead of pandan syrup flavoring as well as the ube instead of using ube powder i used syrup flavoring also..i keep on looking for that ube powder but its not available here in our place in manila....still the the taste good...but the the other one the white puto i failed, i used rice flour but the texture are not so good compare to the ube and pandan which is i used AP flour and cake flour..i follow your proportion in liquid to dry ing. in white puto and the rice flour also but still i failed...is there any of the ingredients do i need to adjust?

Where can I purchase those plastic bowls you used to mold the puto...those are awesome!

hi! thank u very much for sharing your puto recipes. I finally got the rice puto right - thanks to your recipe! Is it possible for me to use rice flour in the ube puto recipe instead of all purpose flour? And if yes, what would be the measurement for the rice flour and ube powder. Thanks again!

Lisa

Oggi said...

Lisa, yes you may substitute rice flour but just eyeball the mixture. It shouldn't be too runny nor too thick. Start with 1 cup rice flour then add more if it's too thin.
Thanks for visiting.:)

Hi Oggi. Thank you very very much for your advice! Yes, I did keep an eye on the batter consistency and I finally came up with an excellent ube puto which was moist and cakey. I think I may just have to add a tad bit of purple food coloring to get a perfect ube puto. I have been trying to make the perfect puto for years now and I really need to thank you for this success. Please continue to share your expertise and knowledge with us.

I went philippines last month and i ate a lot of goldilocks puto with ube and i realy enjoy the taste how delicious the puto,and now where back home,how i realy missed the puto so i search in internet and i fount it here.Thanks men for your yummy recipe.

I just tried making puto for the very first time. Unfortuantely, I used I different recipe that I found long time ago (Sorry =( I really wish I saw this site before I tried it). Well, it didn't turn out too good at all. How do you steam the puto without having a steamer? Thank you for any help. I'm determined to make it right and will definitely use this recipe next time. =)

Oggi said...

Anonymous@7/16, you are welcome and enjoy the puto.:)

Anonymous@7/17, I also use a large wok with a domed lid and I place the puto bowls on a perforated pizza pan. They work perfectly for both puto and siopao.

A@7/23, thanks. I'll try that next time.:)

Janis, glad it turned out perfect.:)

A@9/17, I bought the molds from our local Filipino grocery

A&29, T means tablespoon

Char, you can use a perforated pizza pan on top of a wok with a domed lid. Or if you have a Dutch oven and a rack that will fit inside, that will also work.

Hi! I am a filipina who has been living in Valencia (Spain) for ages and I am now starting to cook pinoy food! so salamat for the puto recipe! it seems easy so I hope to make them! Just one question if I want to make them using banana leaves how do I fold them so they will contain the mix well, do you put them in the cups and then pour the mix and steam?
Thanks again! Your blog is great!

Oggi said...

Mari, thanks and sorry for the late reply.:)

Yes, you put the cut leaves on the cups, press, then stack them for at least half an hour so they will stay put, then fill the cups with the mixture.

If you are using very young, soft, and pliant leaves, which are impossible to get here in the USA, this step would be unnecessary.

Thank you so much!!!
Since I left Philippines for about 28 years, I've missed a lot of yummy desserts:-) And nobody can do such a wonderful rice cakes like us "The Filipinos":-))

cherry said...

Hi, I tried making Puto w/ AP flour, yaks, I threw them
all in the garbage . . is it because I did not mix it smoothly? Can we use electric mixer and how many minutes do I have to mix them?

Oggi said...

Cherry, for the white puto rice flour is the best, the ube has AP flour but you can use half AP and half rice flour. Pure rice flour somehow does not work well in the ube puto.

I mix puto by hand, never with an electric mixer because it's a very small and easy to mix recipe.

Hi Oggi, Like so many, I have been looking for a good recipe for Puto. If I cannot find any Puto cups, is it possible to use small glass prep bowls? Also, can I make these without the banana leaves? Thanks again for posting your recipe, I'm really excited to try it out!!

Sasha, I think glass bowls will do but grease them well. Also, lining with banana leaves is optional.:)

Anonymous said...

Hi,

Finally, was able to see a good recipe...just wondering is it better to use coconut milk instead of normal milk? and how about the anise extract? does it really give a different taste on the puto? co'z i don't have it...will i still be able to get pretty much the same result?

Oggi said...

Anonymous @07/15/2010,

Coconut milk gives a distinct Filipino flavor but you can use milk or plain water. Here is another recipe without coconut milk. This is the more traditional puto I know than the one with coconut milk.

Anise is just an option.

Hope that helps and let me know which one you prefer.:)

hello

i tried this recipe to the dot, however, the consistency is not what i expected. i was looking forward to fluffy puto but i got a crumbly result. any tips?

Hi A@11/2/10,

I've read about the coconut toddy (tuba?) puto called Cebu torta.

This is a great tasting recipe. However, my Puto crambles. Why?

Which one, the white? I can't tell why. I have used this formula many times without any problems but will make it again in the next few days.

elaineinplane said...

I LOVE YOU!! I've been looking for the "real" puto recipe--with the rice flour. Everyone keeps giving me the Bisquick recipe or the oone with AP flour. Rice flour is the real way to do puto. I cannot thank you enough! I followed the recipe and made them today and they were perfect! My Greek-Filipino son loves it. I was wondering, what do you think of adding food coloring to the white puto? I was thinking of using red or green for Christmas? What would you recommend? Thank you again!

Oggi said...

Elaine, I'm glad the recipe worked great. What a neat idea to add red and green food dye. For the green you can probably use the buco-pandan for both flavor and color. I would prefer the red ones plain without any flavoring.:)

elaineinplane said...

Me again!
How about cheese? What would you recommend with rice flour-made puto?

Oggi said...

I use regular or sharp cheddar; or you can use kesong puti if you can find or are willing to make some.;p

Hi Oggi,
Love your puto recipe but what i missed is the MANAPLA PUTO from Negros Occidental. They are shinny all around (not sticky) and very spongy. Do you have a recipe for that? I would appreciate it if you can post it on your site. Thanks!

Oggi said...

Oh, I have been searching for puto Manapla recipe for 4 years now but so far have been unsuccessful. These were my absolute favorite back in the Philippines. We used to get them from a house along Reposo Street (now N. Garcia) in Makati. Your description is spot on and now I really really miss them. If you find the recipe first, please email me.:)

Danica said...

Hi, I just want to say that I love you.
I've been trying to find a good puto recipe...my mother doesn't know how to make them but a friend of hers does and I grew tired of asking about getting some or the recipe,
so yes, you are awesome.
:)

Anonymous said...

I was wondering if it needs to cover up with foil since it wasn't mentioned. I appreciate it.

Oggi said...

Danica, thanks.:)

Anon, no; it wasn't mentioned because steaming any food always requires a lid. For puto the lid should be slightly domed so as not to touch the puto. Hope that helps.:)

No, you can't use glutinous rice flour or you'll end up with something like kalamay. If you have regular rice, soak it in water then grind in blender. The recipe is here. You you have to adjust the liquid though.

Been looking for a recipe for this for YEARS since I had some at a party. I didn't know what it was called though so that made it tough! I'm a little nervous about trying to cook with rice flour though since I've read that there are many different kinds. Am I likely to find the right kind at an average grocery store or do I need to go into Chinatown? (I don't know of an area around here that has a large Filipino population so that's probably the only Asian market I'd be able to find.) Does "regular rice flour" always mean the same thing? Thanks! --Tara

Oggi said...

@Anonymous
Any Asian store carries rice flour and I've seen Bob's Red Mill brand of rice flour at the baking aisles of regular grocery stores. This puto recipe calls for (regular white) rice flour, not glutinous rice. Make sure the package doesn't say glutinous, sweet, or sticky rice or you'll end up with very sticky puto.

Annapet said...

Thanks, Oggi! I could not find my puto recipe, and I remember you make puto! You saved the day.

Murasaki Shikibu said...

Is this normal rice flour or glutinous rice flour? When I use glutinous rice flour, I get Mochi, not Puto. Basically they won't rise properly.

Thanks.

Murasaki Shikibu said...

Sorry - I just read all the comments and you specifically have stated not to use glutinous rice flour. Thank you!

Cooking Blogger said...

Oggi, just a clarification, when you use rice flour, do you have to let it sit for a while? And why don't you use rice flour for ube and pandan puto? Just thought I would ask before I make my own. Thanks

Oggi said...

Cooking Blogger, no need to let it sit. I used rice flour once for ube puto and they weret very heavy and sticky. I've never tried it again with rice flour but might make some though. I have tried pandan with rice flour which tasted better than the flour puto.

Anonymous said...

what brand of baking powder did u use in making the white puto? i tried your recipe today but i didnt get the texture as shown here. it tasted good though, i got the rice flour flavor w/c i am looking for but it is more dense as i expected. how will i get that sponge like texture? pls. advise...thank you.

Hi Oggi, I made the white puto just now and I am disappointed at the result. My puto was so shiny inside out and there's no crack on top. The inside is not grainy like the ones in the pictures (white and ube). I wonder what I did wrong?

Oggi said...

Nan Golden
You probably added too much liquid , there isn't not enough solids, or your baking powder has expired. The crack is the result of very high heat.

nan golden said...

Thanks Oggi.. I have to admit my mixture was very "liquid". I wasn't able to buy fresh coconut so I used a pack of coconut powder and added 2 cups water to it. My baking powder is okay, not expired.

fabulouspetite said...

I love puto and i tried making them using an all pirpose flour and steam them. Mine did not come out spongy texture as your. What seems to be the problem with mine. It is dense. the outer part is spongy texture but the middle part is the dense. thanks.

Oggi said...

Sam Cole,
Rice and wheat flour are different and you can't substitute one for the other. If using wheat flour, all-purpose is too heavy. Use cake flour, sifted after measuring. However, since I haven't made white puto using cake flour, I'm not sure about the liquid measurement. Scroll down the page to see the recipe for pandan puto and follow that as your guide.

Hope it works out well.

fabulouspetite said...

Thanks. Mine has a great taste but day 2 and it is even more denser. I put them on the fridge last night. Anyway, will the rice flour make a diffference in textures? Light, spongy and airy? I will try the cake flour as well and compare the difference.

Anonymous said...

Hi Oggi, thank you for your puto recipe. I'm so glad to find that you're using rice flour coz my kids are allergic to gluten. However, I see that you're using coconut milk with it while the ube and pandan not. What could you use as substitute for coconut milk as one of my kids is highly allergic to any kind of nuts, which includes coconut? Thank you so much.

Anonymous @ 12/6/20

I'm just guessing but maybe there's too much liquid. If it is sticky, it could be undercooked or you used glutinous rice instead of regular rice. Sorry but it's hard to pinpoint the cause. Try again with half a recipe and I hope it works.
