Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Grated coconut — Make sure to use fresh grated coconut for the best flavor and texture. If fresh coconut is not available, you can use frozen grated coconut, but make sure to thaw it before using.

Tips & Tricks

  • For an extra flavor boost, you can sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds on top of the Wingko before baking.
  • If you prefer a softer texture, reduce the baking time by 5 minutes.
  • Experiment with different types of palm sugar for unique flavor variations.
