Materials
- 6 medium eggs
- ½ cup or 60 g Blenuten® vanilla flavour
- ½ cup or 60 g powdered sugar
- 6 pandan leaves, washed and roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons of pandan extract
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- ¾ cup full fat coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon flour
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Put the egg yolks, sugar and Blenuten® in a large bowl. Whisk lightly with a hand whisk until the sugar and Blenuten® are completely dissolved. Then, mix in the oil until combined.
- Mix the pandan leaves in a blender with added water and coconut milk. Strain the mixed leaves to separate the juice.
- Add the pandan leaves juice, the pandan extract and the coconut milk to the mixture. Continue to whisk until even and soft. Add the sifted baking powder and cake flour to the mixture.
- To prepare a chiffon cake, whisk the egg whites and add a little sugar all at once. Whisk until stiff then add to the mixture and stir well.
- Before baking, grease the baking pan with vegetable oil or butter and sprinkle a little flour on the baking sheet so that the cake won’t stick. Put the dough into the pan.
- Bake the cake at 180°C for 1 hour or until golden brown. Enjoy!

Serving recommendations
This cake is light, soft, green and chewy. Your kids can eat it for breakfast or as an afternoon snack. There are two ways to make pandan cake: you can either use a blender to extract the juice from the pandan leaves like we did in this recipe, but if you don't have enough time, you can make this recipe using ready-made pandan paste.
