Instant Pot Ube Halaya or Purple Yam Jam
Ube Halaya is a Filipino dessert that is very easy to prepare. Most Filipino know about this. This dessert can be use a spread, toppings for halo halo or ice cream, use to make ube cake etc... The color of my ube halaya is not bright purple because I did not use a food coloring or ube extract. I only use the fresh ube - Hawaii Ube (Hawaii Purple Yum) whch is lighter color compare with Philippine Ube.
