Adding tapioca starch, pandan powder#, fresh pandan leaf bits, to the Prima brand pancake mix, I was able to bake 4 small pandan waffles without much effort. Less troublesome than my previous pandan waffle recipe 😉
# you can buy the pandan powder from Scoop Wholefood store.
The only drawback was it did not have a strong pandan and coconut aroma. Maybe I can improve by adding more fresh pandan leaf bit next round 😉 I used low-fat milk instead of coconut milk as I always have low-fat milk in my fridge 🥛

Ingredients
A
100g Prima pancake mix
30g tapioca starch
3g pandan powder, 1 tsp
1g baking powder, 1/2 tsp
B
50~55g egg
90g low-fat milk
10g golden syrup/honey
5g fresh pandan leaf, chopped finely
C
15g coconut oil
Directions
1. Mix Ingredient A in a bowl. Set aside.
2. Blend Ingredient B in a separate bowl till well mixed.
3. Gradually mix A to B using a whisk, till you get a smooth batter.
4. Finally, mix C to the batter. Cover the bowl of batter with cling wrap, and let it stands for about 30 to 60 minutes.
5. Heat up a waffle maker following the manufacturer's instructions. Brush a thin coat of vegetable oil over the waffle plates, and wait for the ready-light to be illuminated.
6. Stir the waffle batter before adding to the hot waffle plates. Close the waffle maker and wait for the ready-light to be illuminated again, or till the steam has reduced.
7. Open the waffle maker, and check whether the waffles have been fully cooked. Flip the waffles over, close the waffle maker, to brown the other face of the waffles.
8. Brown* the waffles to your desired tone, remove the waffles from the waffle maker. Serve warm or cold 😋
* over-browned the waffles may cause the waffles to have a drier texture 😉
