Kueh Pandan Bakar Santan

Kueh Pandan Bakar Santan is a traditional Malay dessert with custard like texture and flavoured with pandan extract and coconut cream.

The very first time my daughter had this kueh, she loves it immediately. She even ask me for the recipe and very eager to assist me in baking this kueh.

I always use the freshly squeezed pandan extract.

I am pleased to share with you the following recipe :

Ingredients

1 cup caster sugar

25 gm salted butter (room temperature)

2 ½ cup plain all purpose flour (sifted)

3 eggs

1 tbsp of roasted sesame seeds

500 ml coconut cream (Kara brand)

1 cup homemade pandan extract (made using 10 matured pandan leaves)

1½ cup water
(Combine coconut cream, pandan extract and water in a bowl)

Procedure

Heat the oven at 180 C.

Grease your baking pan with butter.

In an electric mixer, place the sugar and butter, beat on medium speed for 3 minutes until light and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time until all the mixture incorporated.

With the mixer on low speed, add one third of the combination of coconut cream, pandan extract and water followed by the sifted flour. Repeat with another one third of the mixture and the remaining last flour.

Scrape down the side of the bowl and continue mix for a minute or two till no lumps.

Pour your batter into the baking pan, sprinkle some sesame seeds on top of the batter and bake for 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre and comes out clean.

Transfer to wire rack to cool.

Enjoy!
