Mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a bowl.
Whisk the egg, milk, and vegetable oil in a separate bowl.
Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and make a pourable batter.
Heat the taiyaki pan and lightly oil it.
Pour a thin layer of batter into the mold, place anko paste in the center, and cover with more batter.
Close the mold and cook each side for 3 minutes, until golden.
Repeat with the remaining batter and anko.
Rest the taiyaki on a wire rack for 3 minutes and serve hot.
💡 Tip: If you do not have a special taiyaki pan, make small portions in a waffle maker; the shape changes, but the filling and crisp edges remain.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Split the hot taiyaki in half and serve as a snack with unsweetened tea or plain filter coffee.
