Divide everything by about eight, so that's: 125g rice 125ml apple juice 125 - 250 ml water Some coconut milk... Depends on the size of the tin you get, and adjust the amount of water you add to suit this too.
You're right, it is paper back foil, loads of pro team soigneurs use it, but I think that it's mostly sold in Europe. Never seen it in the UK at least!
Tried this just yesterday, great recipe. Pro tip: try glutinous rice. You'll have to boil it in water or broth for a loooooong time, but it'll have a nougat-y consistency when cooked as opposed to grainy like steamed rice. No need to freeze :) slice into bars, wrap each bar separately in Japanese paper lined with roasted flour to keep the bar from sticking to the paper, and you're done. Source: I'm Filipino and I've cooked and eaten rice meals all my life.
I just made this recipe and it's awesome! Cooled it overnight and this morning I took a piece with me on a quick 60k spin just so I could try it out and it was great! Had another small slice with tea for a snack when I got in! Will definitely make it again, but next time I think I will swap the dried fruit for something savoury... maybe bacon;) Thanks GCN!
I love these episodes. Nutrition is one of my favourite aspects of cycling and these recipes look great! Cheers for yet again another fantastic video :)
There is a very short shelf life on rice cakes because of this. It's also worth thinking about how on earth you'll keep them cool on a hot day in your back pocket.
Brown rice is lower GI, but white rice is quite high GI. It's very high in starch, which does need to be broken down into simple sugars by your digestive system, but this is no bad thing. If you need an instant glucose hit, eat sweets or a down a gel.
I made these today! I have a 50 mile ride tomorrow with 25 miles of straight climbing. I am bringing rice cakes, pb&j with Nutella, and block shots. It's going to be a feast on wheels ;)
I used arborio rice and may have overlooked it. They were pretty gelatinous. Will try a medium grain rice next and cook it just to the point of tenderness.
I injured my back, which is obvs bad, but the upside is I'm getting to spend some time on cooking. I'm finally trying new recipes and this is the first one I'm trying. Thanks, GCN!
How long is "really short shelf life outside the fridge"? I don't want to pocket some on a hot ride for a few hours only to find my food has gone bad. I do want to give these a try though!
I made this yesterday.. like others have mentioned, I made it nice and sticky with the same consistency as the video and it wouldn't set! I'm throwing it in the bin now - will try again, being sure to keep it much drier; not like wet porridge.
Can you please let me know where to buy paper to envelop the rice cake or bars? It’s not easy to find a brand and a shop in Europe that sell it. Please let me know. Best regards and congratulations for the channel
Just made the rice cakes. Yum. Looking forward to eating some out on my next ride... And when I get back... And after dinner. Thanks +Global Cycling Network
This is really a carbohydrate bomb. Though rice is very popular food in Japan, this is first time seeing boiling with sugar, coconuts milk and apple juice. I'll try it.
Great video, Hannah. Thanks for a great recipe/recipes once again, its motivated me to them out and to train hard/smarter. I would add 4/5 can of Mighty Malt/1 litre Carrot juice, instead of 1 Apple juice because you already added Dried Apple Slices. Some Sultanas, black corridors pepper, 2 cans rice milk, with same stuff you've but depending circuit, road time trial or high hill climbs which cyclist are going to need the best nutrition to get form of energy.
Made a batch of these rice cakes recently, about half the amounts used in this video resulted in 24 bars at just over 100 g each. When freshly made these bars were fabulous but after storing them in the freezer they've become a tad dry. As I'd read about people having trouble getting their cakes to settle I might've cooked the rice porridge too thick, so shall try leaving it a little runnier next time which will hopefully correct the dryness.
Magnus Helin if you're looking for a bar that stores well (or at least better than the rice cakes) check out our 'Über Bar' recipe: How To Make Energy Bars - GCN's Food For Cycling
Well apart from the last month, in Britain there is not too much worry about hot temperatures :)... are there going to be more recipies for things like this in the future? :)
How long will these last in your backpocket during a ride before melting and leaking? Or, are they meant to be eaten pre-ride right after taking them out of the fridge?
They hand the riders a bag as they are riding, probably straight from the fridge. Buy they shoukd keep for an hour I woukd guess, provided its not boiling hot out
Can you use brown rice or will it not be sticky enough to form bars? Currently in the middle of making these with brown rice but I'm scared they wont work.
It may be a silly question but what size of pot are you using to make 1KG of rice cake How many liters does it hold I have got a pot looks big enought but the rice swells up making it difficult to add the rest of the ingrediants with out spilling over the side.
Hey Ryan, the advantage is really flavour, for those people that have been riding for so long they are sick of energy bars, gels and drinks. The nutritional profile of the rice cakes is no better than an energy bar.
pershazelgrove, I think rice is to 'fill' your stomach. For energy and nutrients, you have the electrolytes in water, energy gels and bars. Rice keeps you from having an empty stomach
Damn GCN. Mad respect for the time you guys take with editing, music, and camera angles. Truly appreciate it.
Thanks Philip Han!
very true being into photo, video and now cycling as well one of the many things I love about these guys is the video quality. So much work.
they even put a gopro on her spoon when she was folding in the mixture. #dedication
Yeah but was that dizzying! Great video and want some "apple pie rice cakes" for desert since I just finished lunch....
It's weird how unappreciated these chefs can be. I just have mad respect for them and I'll definitely try making those rice cakes.
Divide everything by about eight, so that's:
125g rice
125ml apple juice
125 - 250 ml water
Some coconut milk... Depends on the size of the tin you get, and adjust the amount of water you add to suit this too.
We have a 'GCN's Cycling Nutrition Playlist'. I'm afraid it's not all Hannah - GCN Masterchef Simon Richardson makes an appearance too.
Spoon cam made me dizzy xD

Bacon ,egg rice cake lol😮. I mean just thin slices for flavor .not crazy big bits 😢
Hannah you should have your own channel!!! Good stuff, nice narration aswell!
Buy her book. It's on the wall. "The Grand Tour Cookbook."
It's not out in English yet, but should be being published soon. We can't wait to get hold of it!
It can indeed!
Hannah Rocks! We want more Hannah, More Hannah, More Hannah :-)
I've done it for eating in my rides.
My family eated all in the first day. Awsome !!!
Yes, but not all fat is bad fat. Current thinking, within pro cycling at least, is that coconut fat is really beneficial.
Definitely going to fuel my summer riding spree with these. Cheers Hannah!
What ever happened to Hannah GCN? We need more of these :D
Webgkil I
I love these episodes. Nutrition is one of my favourite aspects of cycling and these recipes look great! Cheers for yet again another fantastic video :)
Those GoPro angles were brilliant
Hannah!!! She has the best accent and love her cooking. Yummy & healthy stuff!
i want that go pro spatula
More videos with Hannah please.
Great videos, cant get enough of them at the moment!

Thank you for this amazing recipe. It looks very beautiful! Please make more videos with recipes for long bike rides. Amazing channel!
I made these today! I have a 50 mile ride tomorrow with 25 miles of straight climbing. I am bringing rice cakes, pb&j with Nutella, and block shots. It's going to be a feast on wheels ;)
How was that ride mate?
just bought her new cookbook. Great recipes for "performance food" a really nice, overall quality book (paper & pic's)
Regular milk, soya milk or rice milk would all work.
such a good channel, i learn something new everyday. Thank you!!
Sweet rice also called mochi rice is sticky when cooked and will hold together better than regular rice. This is what I use.
Thank you GCN that you took on my request!
Great tip. I use Japanese "Sticky" rice and when cooked, it's already sticky and holds together well. Will try these ingredients though. Thanks
Nice 👍
I will try this ,
With rice 🍚 and dates , apples ,
You should do more videos with her
I enjoy them. Also the GoPro on the spoon was a nice touch :]
Most excellent work.
GoPro on the spoon, I love it!
Hannah is amazing,she should have a cook show!
I used arborio rice and may have overlooked it. They were pretty gelatinous. Will try a medium grain rice next and cook it just to the point of tenderness.
Hi Guy, the written recipe is in the description :-)
I injured my back, which is obvs bad, but the upside is I'm getting to spend some time on cooking. I'm finally trying new recipes and this is the first one I'm trying. Thanks, GCN!
I cannot believe you actually made this video...GCN I love you!
These look good. I have been using the recipe from the feed zone book for bacon and egg rice cakes, but I want to try these.
I love the Spoon Cam!!! You guys rock it out every time!!! And I'm in love with her accent, too, btw. I'm American, I dig accents.
Awesome I am so going to make this tomorrow
You should do more videos with her, very approachable and warm.
YES SHE'S BACK! Thank you GCN. She's a really interesting person.
Weird to see a cooking video on GCN though.
Instantly recognized the danish accent :)
great vid btw.
Hannah is the best!!!
Can we get some more videos of recipes GCN? love these!
Can we just take a second to appreciate those sunglasses? It's like a 70's flashback.
Not sure if anyone will read this comment, but can we have an estimation of the carbs/100g?
Great recipe BTW, I really enjoyed it!
JUST made iT to! Loved iT!
How long do these keep- would they go off during a 4h ride for example?
Richard Noble they wouldn't go off during a four hour ride but we'd recommend using fresh rice cakes rather than day or two day old ones.
Thanks for this
Would like to see more videos like this :)
Thanks! this is really useful!

Is it possible to put them in the oven for 20minutes to have it more dry like a cracker?
Yet another amazing video GCN, Do you have any idea how many calories are in each piece?
where did she grew up in? love the accent.
odi97thegreat Hannah Grant is Danish. :)
Great recipe! No more powerbars. This are my new tanks of energy for my rides. Kudos!
That looked delicious and delicious and delicious and yummy
Can you please let me know where to buy paper to envelop the rice cake or bars? It’s not easy to find a brand and a shop in Europe that sell it. Please let me know. Best regards and congratulations for the channel
Here in our Philippines,,, it is called biko or sinukmani in our province...its a delicious delicacy
Just made the rice cakes. Yum. Looking forward to eating some out on my next ride... And when I get back... And after dinner. Thanks +Global Cycling Network
She reminds me of Elon Musk for some reason
OMG spot on couldnt think of the person..
Same accent - despite the fact that he’s South African/American and she’s...Belgian...?
@@joachimmacdonald2702 she is Danish in fact
cosenal ah, that makes sense
@@joachimmacdonald2702 she is much nicer looking.
I love the spoon camara

I love the way she said "Firm rice cake"
Made a batch of these rice cakes recently, about half the amounts used in this video resulted in 24 bars at just over 100 g each. When freshly made these bars were fabulous but after storing them in the freezer they've become a tad dry. As I'd read about people having trouble getting their cakes to settle I might've cooked the rice porridge too thick, so shall try leaving it a little runnier next time which will hopefully correct the dryness.

Yes, I've stocked up on the ingredients for the Über bars but not had the time to cook up a batch yet!
Well apart from the last month, in Britain there is not too much worry about hot temperatures :)... are there going to be more recipies for things like this in the future? :)
That looks delicious! :) Yum!
Thank you
where can you find the paper to wrap the portions??? brand???
I am not even remotely interested in cycling, but the cooking videos are great. I would love to see more.
Would cooking time be less if the rice were pre soaked several hours prior. Would pre soak affect the consistency of the finished product??
I would like a detailed explanation on how to package for the back of your jersey
Thank you :)
Definitely yere best video! Haha
She sounds danish 🇩🇰🍺
I love the danish accent
Great biking, great food. I had a go looking on amazon for the special spoon Hannah is using. Can anyone tell me 'what' it is?
Andrew Wallace That's a normal spoon with a GoPro attached to it... :)
How long will these last in your backpocket during a ride before melting and leaking? Or, are they meant to be eaten pre-ride right after taking them out of the fridge?
I'd say 4 hours in the back pocket?
They hand the riders a bag as they are riding, probably straight from the fridge. Buy they shoukd keep for an hour I woukd guess, provided its not boiling hot out
Sorry, maybe I missed it but what is the name of this type of paper they usually use to wrap them ? I heard they are very cheap in Belgium...
Ummm... we're not sure *****. The pro team soigneurs tend to use a paper-backed foil that we've only seen in Europe.
Hmm yes... Saw an belkin soigneur today and he gave me a little piece of it. Off to the supermarket now :)
Bacofoil Lined Parchment.
If you add Coconut milk, you've made Biko, a filipino food. Try it next time. Though traditional biko wouldn't have dried fruits in it.
Can you use brown rice or will it not be sticky enough to form bars? Currently in the middle of making these with brown rice but I'm scared they wont work.
Joshua Cole not tried brown rice, but I think that sticky rice is important to hold it all together.
It's true. Brown rice didn't work well at all. Short grain white rice turned out well.
What exactly do you mean by vert short self life? Still good at the end of six hour ride, or even shorter?
excelente!!!!
It may be a silly question but what size of pot are you using to make 1KG of rice cake How many liters does it hold I have got a pot looks big enought but the rice swells up making it difficult to add the rest of the ingrediants with out spilling over the side.
Hannah and the mechanic from Garmin Sharp are my favorite non cyclists TDF characters.
so could you theoretically bake these? if not, any suggestions on how to make your own sweet flavoured rice cakes instead of buying?? many thanks, xxA
do you store it in the fridge or freezer?
She said, fridge 4 days, freezer 1 month.
Can we use integral rice?
any similar recipes without coconuts involved?
You could probably use oat milk or other milk substitute
I'm new to cycling and still in the process of mastering my nutritional needs. That being said, what are the advantages of rice cakes? Thanks!
Hey Ryan, the advantage is really flavour, for those people that have been riding for so long they are sick of energy bars, gels and drinks. The nutritional profile of the rice cakes is no better than an energy bar.
Roger that. Thank you very much.
Mine kind of fell apart. Any tips on how to make them stay in tact?
pershazelgrove, I think rice is to 'fill' your stomach. For energy and nutrients, you have the electrolytes in water, energy gels and bars. Rice keeps you from having an empty stomach
How do I know when it is enough water?
