Pani Popo (Coconut Bread)

from the kitchen of Sarah

3 cans coconut milk
1 cup sugar
7 Tbsp. corn starch
1 cup water
Bread/Roll dough (use your favorite recipe or Rhodes Rolls)

Mix first four ingredients in saucepan over medium heat until sauce thickens. Pour in baking pans and place buns in sauce. Let rise until double in size then bake at 350 degrees until golden brown (usually about 20-25 min depending on dough recipe) Makes 2 cake pans.

I got this recipe when I lived in Hawaii from my good friend Barbara Autele who was from Samoa. This is one of our family's favorite treats!
