This looks similarly to "Binangkal" a type of doughnut from the Philippines. But I love the idea of Binangkal with fillings in them.

Interesting, is it also made with rice flour?

I want to try with lotus fillings (I've only ever tasted it with red bean)

Binangkal is made of AP flour, they are fried doughnut but harder, and def no filling. The person who commented above thought of binangkal maybe because it’s also dark brown with sesame seeds on the outside, it’s round as a dough, but it bursts during deep frying.

Sesame balls are called Buchi in the Philippines, and aside from sweetened mung bean being the most traditional and most common, we also used various sweet fillings.
