Instructions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients for the puto batter.

Step 2

Whisk until smooth and well blended, ensuring there are no lumps.

Step 3

Place the puto mixture inside a heat-safe container.

Step 4

Preheat the air fryer to 150°C.

Step 5

Place the container inside and bake for 30 minutes.

Step 6

After the first 10 minutes of baking, open the air fryer and gently place sliced cheese on top of the partially set batter.

Step 7

Continue baking for the remaining 20 minutes, or until fully cooked.

Step 8

Let the puto cool slightly before removing from the container.

Step 9

Serve warm, or chill for a firmer texture.

Pro Tips

#1

Whisk the batter thoroughly to ensure there are no lumps.

#2

Using a water bath helps retain moisture during the baking process.

#3

Chill the finished puto if you prefer a firmer texture.

#4

Add the cheese topping halfway through to prevent it from sinking or burning.
