160g plain flour
4 eggs
100g caster sugar
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
3 tbsp water
Adzuki red bean paste(from Daiso)
Cooking oil for greasing if not using non stick pan


1. Sift plain flour, baking powder and baking soda in a mixing bowl and set aside.

2. In another bowl, add eggs, caster sugar, honey and whisk until the mixture is all bubbly and slightly pale yellow.

3. Slowly add flour mixture in 3 additions into the eggs mixture. Stir until all the ingredients are just incorporated and there are no flour lumps. Do not overmix. Using spatula and folding method, mix in 3 tbsp of water. Leave aside batter covered with cling wrap for 30 mins.

4. Heat a flat and non-stick frying pan over low heat. If using normal pan, grease the pan very lightly with cooking oil. Wipe off any excess oil with kitchen paper. I pour the batter into a measuring cup to get the neat round circles. Once u see bubbles forming and they stop moving, can use spatula to flip to the other side and cook for a while longer. Leave to cool on cooling rack before adding filling.
