Pandan Waffles

Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: American, Filipino
Keyword: berries, pandan, waffles
Servings: 6 waffles

Equipment

  • 1 waffle iron
  • 1 tongs
  • 1 spatula

Ingredients

  • ½ cup tapioca starch
  • ¾ cup all purpose flour
  • ¾ cup rice flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pandan extract
  • 4-5 drops green food coloring (optional)
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 14.5 oz can coconut milk full-fat or lite as desired
  • ghee, or other high-heat oil spray
  • whipped cream, berries, and mint leaves to garnish as desired

Instructions

  • Mix the first four dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.
  • Mix together the sugar and wet ingredients (eggs, coconut milk, butter, extract, food coloring) in a separate bowl.
  • Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry, using a spatula to stir together until well mixed. Some small lumps are okay, perfect smoothness is not required. Add more food coloring if you want super green waffles. I wanted mine a lighter green.
  • Follow the individual instructions for your waffle iron here. I like to use the ghee spray to impart a light butteriness. But in general spray each side of the waffle iron, then pour a small amount of batter to fill but not overfill the waffle iron. I cooked mine for 2 minutes (according to my waffle iron).
  • Use the spatula and tongs or your preferred method to loosen the waffles from the pan. Stack on a plate and cover with a towel until all are complete. Mine made 6 waffles, but yours may yield more or less depending on iron size. Or make smaller ones, whatever you want to do!
  • Garnish with whipped cream, cut strawberries, and blueberries (and mint!) as desired. These waffles with garnish, are sweet enough not to need syrup.
