Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking dish with a bit of coconut oil or line it with parchment paper.

Tie the pandan leaves into knots and add them to the cassava mixture. This will infuse a subtle aroma and flavor. Remove them after mixing.

Step 5

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cake is firm to the touch.
