Greetings Hiveans!!

Let's have a delicious dessert this time. I've been seeing this in some reels on YouTube and got interested in doing it myself, too. Again, I did not follow all their measurement of ingredients, and I also made a twist on the cooking method.

I have loved eating "buko pie" ever since my younger years. I had this favorite buko pie from the famous "Collete's Buko Pie" and as I remember, I can only buy this at a specific place in Mandaue City, so sometimes I purposely drop by in that store from the university or even the time that I was already working, just to buy their delicious buko pie before going home, regardless I'd have to take another ride.

But sadly, it's been ages since I last ate their buko pie because it's far away from my place now. However, when I crave it, I try to order from Jollibee, but unfortunately, they're always out of stock.

That's why, as I saw this recipe, I immediately tried to make it too...that was the same day I cooked the "sweet and sour fish," because it was our 35th wedding anniversary, and my husband and I love that sweet and sour fish, as does the buko pie.

So, let's go back to "No Crust Buko Pie" now!

No Crust Buko Pie

INGREDIENTS:

• 3 cups young coconut meat
• 1 L coconut juice
• 2 sachets of powdered milk (any brand)
• 1 can of condensed milk
• 1 can of evaporated milk
• 1 1/2 cups of cornstarch
• Butter
• Cheese

PREPARATION AND COOKING:

Cut the young coconut meat into smaller pieces.
Grate the cheese.
From 1 litre of coconut juice, I obtain 1/2 cup of it, which I use to dilute the powdered milk. I then dilute the cornstarch with 1 cup of coconut juice.

Let's now start cooking.

Preheat the pan on the stove. Once heated, add the coconut meat and half of the remaining coconut juice, and cook until the juice has evaporated and the coconut meat is slightly tender.

Then add the condensed milk, evaporated milk, the diluted powdered milk and the remaining coconut juice. Mix them carefully and combine well. Use a low heat setting to avoid curdling.

When the liquid is reduced, add the grated cheese and then mix it with the diluted cornstarch. Continue stirring and mixing until you achieve your desired consistency.

Now, let's grease the molder with melted butter and then pour in the buko pie mixture. Let it cool down for a few minutes, then refrigerate.

And there we go... it smells delicious and looks incredibly tempting. That was so delish... 😋❤and we all love it.

We still had some of it on the next day (meaning, today), and we also had some wheat bread left, so I decided to make our snacks out of it. I filled some buko pie mixture on the wheat bread, folded it to close, and then heated it in the air fryer... now my buko pie has a crust already. 😍

It's yummy and crunchy!!
Let's have some guys.😊❤

I hope you like it.
Bye for now and see you around.
Thank you so much for stopping by, and God bless. 🙂🙏❤
