150g Cream cheese

15g Unsalted butter

10g Erythritol (to taste based on durian)

2g Vanilla essence

For pandan apam balik

4 tsp Fresh pandan extract

4 nos Egg

100g Almond meal

It’s gonna be a “National Cheesecake Day” celebration’s recipe so I have created this special innovative cheat version of apam balik to infused cheese with local delight and something on season now...DURIAN!

Yes durian is not ketofied, but all we want is a worth treat to cheat on. Come on! We are at the peak of durian season now, so cheat a bit once in a blue moon je! (Just make sure to replenish electrolytes, exercise and eat more greens after this meal if you decided to follow my pace )

On this day, no complicated steps will be implied. Just mix everything evenly from the ingredients and use a non stick pan to bake the apam balik one by one with a standard scoop. Then pipe in the durian cream cheese filling. That’s it, voila!

Trust me, the nice natural pandan aroma from the fluffy outer layers which paired with the creaminess from the real durian flesh cream cheese has made this apam balik tasted too good!!!!

I never expect the sensory outcome of making this cheese dessert will go beyond how it looks (as shown in the picture).

Taste awesome! Want a bite?
