Ingredients

• 150 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 50 grams Tapioca flour
• 50 grams Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 large Egg
• 250 milliliters Whole milk
• 100 milliliters Water
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 50 grams Butter
• 100 grams Chocolate sprinkles
• 50 milliliters Sweetened condensed milk
• 50 grams Crushed peanuts

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, tapioca flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to combine the dry ingredients.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, whole milk, water, and vanilla extract until well blended.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl, stirring continuously until you achieve a smooth batter without lumps.

Step 4

Cover the bowl with a clean cloth and let the batter rest for about 30 minutes to allow the baking powder and baking soda to work.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat. Grease lightly with a small amount of butter.

Step 6

Pour half of the batter into the heated pan. Cook uncovered until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to appear dry, about 10-12 minutes.

Step 7

Cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Allow the martabak to cook until fully set, approximately 5 more minutes.

Step 8

Remove the cooked martabak from the pan and place it on a flat surface. While it is still hot, spread half of the butter generously over the surface.

Step 9

Sprinkle half of the chocolate sprinkles and crushed peanuts over the buttery area, then drizzle with sweetened condensed milk.

Step 10

Fold the martabak in half to make a semi-circle and press slightly to seal. Let it cool for a few minutes for the filling to set.

Step 11

Repeat the cooking and filling process with the remaining batter and ingredients.

Step 12

Slice the martabak into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious Gluten-Free Martabak Manis!
