Pandan Coconut Milk Rolls

These pandan coconut milk rolls are soft, pillowy, and infused with the sweet, grassy aroma pandan is known for — the kind of bakery treat that usually means a special trip to your local Asian bakery. This homemade version comes together with a simple tangzhong method for extra-fluffy texture, and it’s not too sweet, so it works just as well alongside a savory breakfast as it does with your afternoon coffee. Once you’ve made a batch, you’ll wonder why you ever bought them

My family loves it when I bake this kind of, not too sweet, pastry at home. They think it is made to order and call for these all the time. We usually don’t have any leftovers but if we do, they disappear with morning coffee or as a grab breakfast treat. Since then this has grown into a family favorite.

Tangzhong– in a saucepan: add flour, water, milk and mix everything together. Turn the heat to low-medium. Use a spatula or whisk and stir frequently to prevent burning. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until the mixture thickens (reaches to 150°F). Set aside until ready to use.

In a bowl: mix the yeast and coconut cream (warm 110°) Let sit for 10 minutes. Stand Mixer: add the rest of the ingredients.

Knead on low (speed 1) for 1-2 minutes, then gradually increase the speed 2 for 8 minutes. Shape the dough into a ball. Grease your hands with oil because the dough is going to be a little sticky.Knead by hand for 10-14 minutes until smooth. Shape the dough into a ball. 

Transfer the dough to a lightly grease bowl. 

First Dough Rise: Cover with a clean towel or saran wrap for the first 1 hour or until it doubles in size. Optional: place in the cold oven with the light on.

Coat the 9″x13″ pan with coconut oil or cooking spray. Make sure to grease your hands before touching the dough. Gently punching down the dough. Fold the edges towards the center. Transfer the dough to a working surface. Then, divide the dough into 12 pieces (70g-73g each). Highly recommend using a food scale for your dough. 

Flatten and fold the edges together then seal them to form the roll. Gently shape each piece into a smooth ball (Watch the video for reference). Transfer the rolls to the greased pan. 

Second Dough Rise: cover and let rise for 2 hour or until it doubles in size. Optional: place in cold oven with the light on. Remove pan when ready o bake.

Preheat the oven to 320°. Sprinkle or sift cornstarch on top of the rolls (this will prevent it turning too brown). 

Bake for 20-22 minutes or until lightly golden on top. It took me 22 minutes.

Serve

Enjoy!

    Storage & Reheating

    Room temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Freezer: Freeze baked, cooled rolls in a freezer-safe bag for up to 1 month. Reheating: Microwave a roll for 15–20 seconds, or wrap in foil and warm in a 300°F oven for about 5 minutes to bring back that fresh-baked softness.

    Recipe FAQs

    Can I use coconut milk instead of coconut cream? Coconut cream is thicker and richer, which gives these rolls their soft, tender crumb. Coconut milk is thinner and will make the dough wetter — if it’s all you have, reduce the water in the tangzhong slightly or add an extra tablespoon or two of flour.

    Where can I find pandan extract? Bottled pandan extract is available at most Asian grocery stores or online. You can also make your own by blending fresh or frozen pandan leaves with a little water and straining out the liquid.

    Can I make the dough ahead of time? Yes — after the first rise, you can refrigerate the dough overnight, then let it come to room temperature before shaping. Alternatively, shape the rolls, cover tightly, and refrigerate overnight for the second rise; let them sit at room temperature for 30–45 minutes before baking.

    Do I have to use food coloring? No — it’s purely cosmetic. Pandan extract adds flavor and a very faint natural tint on its own; the food coloring just makes the green more vibrant.

    Homemade Raspberry Preserve

    This homemade raspberry preserve comes together with just three ingredients and about 18 minutes on the stove — no pectin, no canning equipment, no fuss. As it simmers, your kitchen fills with the smell of tart berries and caramelizing sugar, and what’s left is a preserve with a fraction of the sugar you’ll find in the jarred stuff at the store. It’s perfect swirled into oatmeal or yogurt, spread on toast or scones, or spooned over English muffins. Fair warning: in this house it disappears in a couple of weeks, not the full 4–6 it’ll keep.

    Please follow Facebook, Instagram,  Twitter , Pinterest, or subscribe to my YouTube channel.

    Place the raspberries

    Add sugar and lemon juice in a medium sized pot/sauce pan. Mix everything together.

    Turn the stove top heat high and cook for 10 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning or sticking to the pan. Then, turn down the heat to medium-low and let simmer for an additional 8-10 minutes. Continue to stir frequently. Let the raspberries simmer until the juice evaporates. Turn off the heat & remove the pan from heat source.. The mixture will thicken after as the preserve reaches room temperature. 

    Once cool enough to touch; Transfer the contents to a jar or container and place in the refrigerator. It’s good for up to 4-6 weeks.

    Recipe FAQs

    Can I use frozen raspberries? Yes — the recipe already calls for fresh or frozen. No need to thaw first; they’ll break down as the mixture heats.

    Is this a jam, a jelly, or a preserve — what’s the difference? Jelly is made from strained juice only (no fruit pieces), jam uses crushed fruit, and preserves keep larger pieces or whole berries intact. This recipe is closer to a jam-style preserve since the raspberries break down but still leave some texture.

    Do I need pectin to get it to set? No — simmering the berries down with sugar and lemon juice naturally thickens the mixture as it cools. It’ll be a looser, spoonable set rather than a stiff, sliceable jelly, which is normal for a no-pectin preserve.

    Can I can this for longer shelf life instead of refrigerating? This recipe as written is meant for the refrigerator, not shelf-stable canning — the sugar level and processing time aren’t calibrated for a proper water-bath seal. If you want a shelf-stable jar, follow a tested canning-safe raspberry preserve recipe and processing time instead.

    Can I freeze it? Yes — it freezes well in a freezer-safe container for a few months. Leave a little headspace in the jar since it’ll expand slightly as it freezes.

    Homemade Fluffy Biscuits

    Homemade Fluffy Biscuits are the best when enjoyed fresh from the oven. This recipe is simple and easy to make with ingredients you likely already have in your kitchen. The best part is they only take less than 30 minutes to prepare and cook.

    I have worked over time to make a recipe for biscuits that, my very traditional southern husband, loves to eat. In the south making a good biscuit can make you a legend in your own family. Soft filling comfort food that is great served with honey, butter or my kids favorite, with sausage gravy. If you have never had a good homemade biscuit, you should watch the video and follow the detailed instructions below to find out for your self what all the fuss is about.

    Traditional food from the different regions of the world are largely based on what type of ingredients are available there and what the culture is like. Soft fluffy southern style biscuits are no exception; as flour is used heavily in southern style foods from fried food to gravy, you will likely find flour somewhere near the cooking area as an enhancement to the food experience. No better way to experience what flour can do than having a delicious warm biscuit with some eggs and bacon to fill the eat. My favorite way to enjoy a fresh made biscuit is to cover it with some local honey and butter, it goes great with morning coffee or as a standalone snack. Like and share this or any of my recipes you find interesting from my daily growing catalogue of meal ideas and presentation suggestions.

    Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place parchment paper on a baking sheet. In a large bowl: combine flour, salt, sugar, baking powder and cold butter. Use a pastry cutter or your hand to mix until it begins to form coarse crumbs. Add milk and knead the dough in the bowl for a few minutes. The dough will be sticky at first but once you knead everything it will be fine. If the dough is still sticky add 1 tbsp of flour and knead until it is no longer sticky. Food Processor: add flour, salt, sugar and mix everything together. Add cold butter and mix until it forms into crumbs. Add cold milk and mix. It’s going to be a little sticky.

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Pat the dough out to ¾” to 1″ thick. Use a biscuit cutter or glass to shape 6 biscuits.

          • Preheat the oven to 350°F / 176°C. Lightly grease the loaf pan (9"x 5") with softened butter & flour or coat with flour cooking spray. (optional: line the inside of the pan with parchment paper).
          • Smash the ripe bananas using a fork or potato masher. Add sugar, eggs, vanilla extract and mix. Add melted butter and mix.
          • In a bowl: add flour, salt & baking soda while mixing everything together. (I highly recommend sifting the dry ingredients before adding to the wet ingredients, this will make the batter fluffy and not lumpy). Combine wet and dry ingredients together. Mix until well combined. 
          • Add in fresh cranberries (if using frozen cranberries: do not let thaw use/mix in while still frozen). Then gently fold the batter until the cranberries and is evenly distributed throughout the batter (do not over mix or use a mixer for this step, be gentle). Transfer the batter to the loaf pan. 
          • Bake for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick placed in the center of the bread comes out clean (tent with aluminum foil after 30 minutes, if it's getting too brown on top). Remove from the oven and rest the bread in the pan for 15-20 minutes before transferring the loaf to a baking rack to finish cooling.

          Slice & enjoy!
