Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Low-carb bread loaf
- 200 ml Coconut milk
- 3 Eggs
- 50 g Erythritol
- 2 Pandan leaves
- 50 g Unsalted butter
- 50 g Cream cheese
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
Instructions
Begin with preparing the kaya spread. In a saucepan, combine coconut milk and erythritol over low heat, stirring until the erythritol dissolves completely.
Add the pandan leaves to the saucepan and gently simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove the pandan leaves afterward.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well-mixed. Slowly add them into the coconut milk mixture, continuously stirring to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
Continue cooking over low heat, stirring consistently until the mixture thickens into a smooth custard. This should take about 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract and remove from heat. Set the kaya aside to cool.
Slice the low-carb loaf into 8 equal slices. If necessary, toast the slices lightly for extra crunch.
In a small bowl, mix the unsalted butter with the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Spread a generous amount of the kaya spread onto each slice of toasted low-carb bread.
Top the kaya spread with a slab of the butter and cream cheese mixture.
Serve each Kaya Butter Toast on its own or paired with a hot beverage of choice.
