    Here’s a trivia: Did you know that the first ever bakery or panaderia in the Philippines was established in 1631 by the Spaniards? While our staple food and leading carbohydrate source is rice, the Caucasians have introduced the bread alternative which is versatile for breakfast, lunch, merienda, and dinner. You can pair it with any pasta or choose innovate with dips to match.

    This classic little sweet muffin bread tastes heavenly with condensed milk and brown sugar. It has just the right amount of locked-in sweetness that you can’t get enough of. You can drizzle melted butter on top of it with a sprinkle of sugar or prepare a chocolate dip to go with this treat. Yes, you can go as simple or get bold and creative with preparing this sweet delicacy.

    Kababayan Bread does not just maximize your savings but also keeps you revved up with a multitude of health benefits! This has zero saturated fat and has low calories to keep your heart health in check. It’s also rich in carbohydrates to boost growth and packed with vitamins and minerals to strengthen resilience to illnesses at any age.

    Your favorite pasta with Kababayan Bread is definitely a meal tandem to beat! Or you can even try it with just coffee or any beverage to go with it. If most cakes would be so expensive, this cupcake alternative would definitely be a cheap find for that delicious taste and aroma that won’t leave you shortchanged.

    Kababayan Bread is the famous Filipino muffin. It is called as such because it resembles the shape of a "salakot". This recipe brings back my childhood memories as a young girl. I remember buying this bread from our local bake shop.

      Can you reduce the oil and substitute it with olive oil?

        I am not sure about reducing as it can change the texture of the bread causing it to go dry, but in terms of using olive oil yes you can!

        As i was watching some videos of this. They said you have to turn the oven with higher temp for the first 10mins and then turn it low afterwards. the high temp causes the batter to cook quickly in heat shock and shapes like a hat.
