They said "Sedap". Thank u. Aunty, can u share this recipe because I would like to made this for mum who suffer from diabetics. What I know is that pumpkin is good for diabetics.

Thanks a lot for sharing the recipe.
By flour, did you mean plain flour? Can we use cake flour (softasilk) with the same amount ask in the recipe?

Thanks for sharing the recipe. May I know the recipe yields how many muffin?

Aunty Yochana said...

Hi Let's masak.

I forgot to count. I used big muffin cups that day and I think I have about 8 of them. I think for small cups , you can get about 10 to 12.

Hi Aunty Yochana
Nice & delicious looking muffin.
I want to try making them this sun.

A few questions:
1) Can i use self-raising flour?
2) If yes, the amount the same?
3) If yes, normal baking powder can do or still have to use double-action baking powder? What will be the amount?

Appreciate and Thanks.

Hi Aunty,
Tried this recipe today. Muffin turn out beautifully but seems abit hard. Could it due to too much mixing as flour mixture turns lumpy after pouring in the milk, egg and oil mixture.

wendy said...

Hi Angie,

this is my 1st time trying to steam a cake. Faced the lumpy prob too. What's the correct way to blend the ingredients together and what to note? A bit disheartened coz I thought it can be MIL's breakfast tmr. Please advice and will try again. Thks!

Aunty Yochana said...

Hi Wendy

I did not do anything special..just use a spatula to stir it will do.

Hi Aunty,
Good morning, just would like to seek your advise if I could omit the egg & replace with water for vegetarian purposes & if can what is the quantity of water to be replace. TQ.

Aunty Yochana said...

Hi Delphine

I don't replacing it with water works cos the eggs helps the cake to blossom into a flower and makes the cake soft. if you use water, it might turn out like nonya kueh.
Try using aereated water like orange instead of water..use the same amount. Let me know if u succeed.

Hi Aunty,
Thank you so much for your reply, oh! I see the egg help the cake to blossom into flower, yes, if I do try out with aerated water & if succeed I will sure to let you know. TQ.

Hi Aunty,
I have several questions here?
1. Do I need to use instant or fresh coconut milk?
2. Can i use UHT or fresh milk instead of coconut or evaporated milk? Thanks for sharing.
