Ingredients

• 4 slices Thick brown bread slices
• 50 grams Unsalted butter
• 200 ml Coconut milk
• 2 large Eggs
• 3 leaves Pandan leaves
• 50 grams Coconut sugar

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the kaya jam. In a saucepan, combine coconut milk and coconut sugar over low heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved.

Step 2

Beat the eggs lightly in a separate bowl and gradually add them to the saucepan, stirring continuously to prevent them from curdling.

Step 3

Tie the pandan leaves into a knot and place them into the saucepan. This will impart the signature pandan aroma.

Step 4

Cook the mixture over low heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring consistently, until the kaya thickens to a custard-like consistency.

Step 5

Once the kaya has thickened, remove the pandan leaves and set the kaya aside to cool.

Step 6

Toast the brown bread slices in a toaster or on a pan until they are golden brown.

Step 7

While the toast is warm, spread a generous amount of unsalted butter on each slice, followed by a thick layer of kaya.

Step 8

Cut the toast diagonally into halves or quarters and serve immediately for the best taste.
