Pandan is a popular ingredient in Southeast Asian cuisine, it's fragrant and mildly sweet. And GREEN! The waffle batter typically includes coconut milk, which adds richness, and pandan extract, which gives the waffles their signature taste and hue.

These waffles are cooked in a waffle iron and have a similar texture to classic Western-style waffles, with a crisp exterior and soft, airy interior. Pandan waffles are commonly enjoyed as a snack or dessert, either on their own or with a topping of condensed milk, coconut shavings, or butter. They are particularly popular in countries like Vietnam and Thailand, where pandan is widely used in various sweets and desserts.
