I have been making quite a fair bit of bread for the past few months, it became kinda like my new hobby to explore and discover the bread-making territory. I admit it may not be like the Japanese kind of bread you are looking for. But, a good old style Pandan Bread shouldn’t go wrong with your morning french toast or afternoon snack ice cream sandwich bread.

I’m using a bread loaf pan with a lid to make a regular square shape but if you like to be more fluffy, don’t use the lid. It will rise even higher, giving you more fluffy bread.
