Mamon is one of Filipino fine desserts. It is a fluffy, light, sweet sponge cake. You can find mamon in most Asian supermarkets and Filipino bakeries such as Goldilocks Bakery; however my mommy makes the best mamon. Below is her recipe. It is simple to make
INGREDIENTS
10 whole eggs
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
½ cup melted butter
½ teaspoon vanilla
2 teaspoons baking powder
Toppings
2 egg yolks (slightly beaten)
sugar (optional)
grated cheese (optional)
sliced almonds (optional)
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350º F
- Beat 10 pieces of whole eggs until thick and add 1 cup of sugar
- On another bowl, sift 2 cups flour and baking powder. Combine them together with the beaten eggs and sugar
- Next add the melted butter, vanilla, and the rest of the sugar to the mixture. Blend them all together
- Line muffin pans with paper cups and pour mixture about 2/3 full (or if you have one at home, use the mamon molding tray)
- Bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Insert a toothpick. If it comes out clean, then it is finished
- Once the mamon is out of the oven, brush the top with the egg yolk. It will add color and slight flavor
- You may also sprinkle the top with sugar, grated cheese, and or sliced almonds
- Wait for about 10-15 minutes before serving and happy eating!

I like the idea of this one. Of course being the laziest cook ever, I’d just buy them from the supermarket

I just made this mamon and I was actually dissapointed. It did not turn out to be I hoped. It turrned out more like “Puto” cakes.
I followed the directions exactly as it is and it turned out to be more like puot mamon.
I have to find a different recipe for this. Thank you for sharing though.
I give it a 2 star. ;(
