Pineapple Coconut Jam

Thai Tea Caramel

Method

Pineapple Coconut Jam

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pineapple

    Chop the fresh pineapple into small pieces, ensuring you remove the core. Measure out 2 cups and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Jam

    In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped pineapple, shredded coconut, sugar, and lemon juice. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring frequently.

  3. 3

    Add Pectin

    Once the mixture is boiling, stir in the pectin and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens.

  4. 4

    Add Vanilla

    Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the mixture to cool slightly before transferring it to sterilized jars.

Milk Crumble

  1. 5

    Prepare the Dry Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, milk powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

  2. 6

    Add Butter

    Drizzle the melted butter over the dry mixture and use your hands or a fork to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. 7

    Bake the Crumble

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the crumble mixture onto a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool before using.

Thai Tea Caramel

  1. 8

    Infuse the Heavy Cream

    In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Add the Thai tea leaves and remove from heat. Let it steep for 10 minutes.

  2. 9

    Strain the Cream

    Strain the heavy cream through a fine mesh sieve to remove the tea leaves, pressing to extract all the liquid.

  3. 10

    Make the Caramel

    In a saucepan, combine the brown sugar and strained cream. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to boil.

  4. 11

    Finish the Caramel

    Stir in the unsalted butter and a pinch of salt. Continue cooking until the caramel thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before using.
