How to Make Easy White Puto

  1. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients: 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 cup coconut milk, and 1/4 cup water. Whisk until just combined; do not overmix.
  2. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with cupcake liners.
  3. Fill each muffin cup about halfway with the puto batter.
  4. Place the muffin tin inside a larger roasting pan. Pour enough boiling water into the pan to come about 1 inch up the sides of the muffin tin.
  5. Tent the roasting pan loosely with aluminum foil.
  6. Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 8-10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cooking time may vary depending on your oven; start checking at 8 minutes.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before carefully removing from the muffin tin. Serve warm and enjoy!
