This was one of my favorite treats growing up in Singapore. It's basically a chewy pancake filled with crushed peanuts and sugar. Fillings also include sweet red bean paste, coconut, or kaya jam. I stumbled upon some great Singaporean/Malaysian food blogs lately and they have triggered my longing for foods from home. I was so excited that this was relatively simple to make!
