Pan de Coco, Coconut Bread or Coconut Rolls,they all mean the same thing...
bread filled with
Sweetened Coconut or Bucayo.
I found it easier to fill the dough with the bucayo this way,roll it up like jelly roll.
For the dough I used the Pan de Sal recipe #20, click here.
The rolls can then be sliced across to desired sizes.
The traditional way of making Pan de Cocois to flatten each ball of dough
then put filling in the center,
gather the edges together then pinch to seal.
Serve Pan de Coco with hot cocoa...yummy!
Bucayo (Sweetened fresh grated coconut)
For the Bucayo filling, I used the recipe of Virginia Ganzon Rodriguez who is a facebook friend and is so kind to give me the permission to post it here, but instead of posting it I'll just send you to her website to get the recipe, click here. It is a good bucayo recipe. The only thing that I changed in the recipe is the amount of water which I decreased to 1/4 cup and then I added 1/2 can of condensed milk when the mixture was almost dry, then cooked it just a little longer, about 2 minutes.
ENJOY:

I hope your eyes are not strained anymore.
Hello Ebie!!!I've been meaning to quit blogging since last Summer, but facebook and blogging are very addicting. There are weeks I don't post anything though. My eyes are still bad...they get watery when I'm on computer a lot, but they can't be operated on right now. Thanks for subscribing. Take care!

ReplyDeleteHi! I can't access the recipe for the bucayo the computer also has a problem loading the page. Can you kindly post the recipe in your blog instead. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHello Maricel,I just posted the bucayo recipe for you. If you have any question please let me know.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much and take care.
Love this.. but since I dunno how to make one, we'd usually buy from French Baker... or it's cheaper version, from Julie's Bakeshop! :P
ReplyDeletehi,just want to ask if i can subtitute the grated coconut to dessicated coconut?
ReplyDeleteMenchie, sorry for the long delay in responding to your question as I had problem posting my response here. Anyway, my answer to your question: I think the dessicated coconut might be too dry and doesn't have much flavor to use in this recipe.
