Binangkal is a type of doughnut from the islands of Visayas and Mindanao in the Philippines. It is made from dough balls that are coated with sesame seeds and deep fried until crisp and golden.

According to Wiki, The name is derived from 
bangkal, the local Cebuano common name for the Leichhardt tree (Nauclea orientalis) which bears spherical flowers and fruits. I guess the shape of this doughnuts looks like it.

The process is so easy. Just combine all the wet ingredients then add the dry ingredients. Mix until it forms a dough then shape into individual dough balls, coat with sesame seeds then deep fry.  They will float and start to crack. Continue cooking until doughnuts are cooked through and the outer part is crisp and golden.

Simple isn't it? So easy to make and the whole family will love it when served with hot chocolate or coffee.

Hi Janette, thank you for this recipe. Binangkal is one of our favorite childhood. I immediately made one as i saw your recipe. I have one problem though, as i put my dough into the oil, the sesame seeds took off! What could have been the prob? The dough though was perfect my kids immediately loved it. I hope you could help me with my dilemma.

Hi Ms. Janelle,
Did you grease your hands while forming the dough balls? The grease will help the sesame stick to the dough balls. That's what I did and the seeds didn't totally come off. Also make sure to immediately coat with sesame seeds as soon as you form 1 dough ball. If you have already done that, then I suggest to double coat with sesame seeds or after coating with sesame seeds, roll again using the palm of your hands for them to stick more.
