Ingredients
- 4 slices Sliced white bread
- 4 tablespoons Kaya (coconut jam)
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
Directions
Step 1
Prepare the ingredients by taking out 4 slices of white bread and cutting each slice into four smaller squares.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over low heat and add 2 tablespoons of milk. Stir in 1 teaspoon of sugar until dissolved. Remove the pan from heat once the sugar is fully incorporated.
Step 3
Spread 1 tablespoon of kaya evenly on 8 of the small bread squares.
Step 4
Top each kaya-covered piece with another piece of bread to make a small sandwich.
Step 5
Arrange the bread sandwiches in a heatproof plate or a shallow dish that fits into your steamer.
Step 6
Pour the melted butter and milk mixture evenly over the bread sandwiches, ensuring that each piece is soaked.
Step 7
Cover the plate with aluminum foil to prevent water from dripping onto the bread.
Step 8
Place the plate in a prepared steamer. Steam over boiling water for about 10-15 minutes until the bread is soft and moist.
Step 9
Carefully remove the plate from the steamer using tongs or oven mitts. Let it cool slightly before serving.
Step 10
Serve the steamed kaya butter bread warm and enjoy as a delightful snack or breakfast.
