Minatamis na Bao
A sticky sweet coconut jam you can apply on bread or add to desserts
Ingredients
- 2 cups coconut cream
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
Instructions
- Combine the coconut cream and brown sugar in a non-stick saucepan over medium heat and bring it to a boil. Stir the mixture enough that the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is well-blended.
- Reduce the heat once you have the mixture boiling and let it simmer. Make sure to continue stirring the mixture until the color darkens and the consistency is thick but drips off the spatula.
- Once you reach the right consistency or you are able to spread it on a piece of bread, transfer the jam into a clean jar and store it well.
Notes
If you want to check on whether you got the right consistency, drop a teaspoonful into a bowl of cold water. You should see the mixture form into a soft ball after a moment but flatten out once it is taken out of the cold water.
