Buko pandan pie is a Filipino dessert that combines the flavors of young coconut (buko) and pandan, a fragrant tropical leaf. This pie features a creamy filling made from a blend of coconut meat, coconut water, heavy cream, and pandan extract, all set in a buttery, flaky pie crust.
The filling typically includes ingredients such as light brown sugar, cornstarch, eggs, and unsalted butter, which are combined and cooked to create a custard-like consistency. Fresh young coconut meat is then added to the mixture, infusing the pie with its distinctive flavor and texture.
Pandan, known for its sweet, floral aroma, is a key ingredient in many Southeast Asian desserts. In buko pandan pie, pandan extract or fresh pandan leaves are used to impart this unique flavor to the filling.
The pie crust is typically made from all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and cold unsalted butter, resulting in a flaky base that complements the creamy coconut filling. The assembled pie is baked until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set.
Buko pandan pie is a variation of the traditional Filipino buko pie, which originated in the province of Laguna. The addition of pandan introduces an aromatic twist to this classic dessert, making it a popular treat for those seeking a taste of the Philippines.
