Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour sifted
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 3 tablespoons cooking oil or unsalted butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven at 375°F (190°C). Grease the kuih bahulu mold with some oil. Preheat the mold in the oven. Remove from the oven, keep warm before using.
- Beat the eggs with an electric hand-mixer until light and fluffy. Add the sugar and continue to beat until the sugar is well dissolved, and the mixture becomes sticky.
- Add in the vanilla extract and fold in the flour gradually. Add the cooking oil or butter. Continue to beat the batter with the hand-mixer until well-blended.
- Fill the mold with the batter, about 90% full. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove the cake from the mold and cool on a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
Notes
Traditional Kuih Bahulu recipe doesn't call for cooking oil or butter, but I find them too dry. Adding the cooking oil or butter makes them come off the mold easily.
