Coconut Syrup Dessert

Instructions

1. 1 Strain fresh coconut toddy through a clean cloth to remove any debris or insects.
2. 2 Pour into a heavy-bottomed pot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
3. 3 Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer steadily, stirring every few minutes to prevent scorching on the bottom.
4. 4 Continue simmering for ninety minutes to two hours as the toddy reduces to about one quarter of its original volume.
5. 5 The syrup is ready when it turns dark amber and coats the back of a spoon thickly, like honey.
6. 6 Pour into a clean glass jar and store at room temperature. Drizzle over breadfruit, bananas, or pancakes.
