'''Timphan'''  or '''jeumphan''' is a steamed banana dumpling, a traditional ''[kue](/source/kue)'' specialty of [Aceh](/source/Aceh), [Indonesia](/source/Indonesia) usually served during Eid or other special occasions.<ref>{{cite news | work = Serambi Indonesia | title = Sihir Timphan, Kesohor ke Nusantara | date = 19 October 2013 | url = http://aceh.tribunnews.com/2013/10/19/sihir-timphan-kesohor-ke-nusantara | language = Indonesian }}</ref> Ingredients to make timphan consists of [glutinous rice flour](/source/glutinous_rice_flour), ground [banana](/source/banana) and [coconut milk](/source/coconut_milk). All of this materials are then mixed and stirred until a thick as a dough. The banana-rice flour dough is spread lengthwise and then it filled with sweetened ''[serikaya](/source/Coconut_jam)'' or grated coconut mixed with sugar. Then the dough is wrapped in [banana leaves](/source/banana_leaves) and steamed for an hour.

It is quite similar to another Indonesian favourite ''kue'', [nagasari](/source/nagasari). The difference is nagasari uses the slices of banana as fillings, while timphan is filled with sweet grated coconut instead, while banana is incorporated into its skin dough.
