Method

Step 1

Prepare the Ingredients:

Gather all the ingredients and measure them accurately.

Chop the nuts finely and set them aside.

Warm the almond milk slightly and soak the saffron threads in it (if using).

Step 2

Toast the Flours:

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat.

Add the almond flour and coconut flour to the pan.

Dry roast the flours, stirring continuously, until they turn golden brown and aromatic (about 5-7 minutes).

Transfer the roasted flours to a large mixing bowl and let them cool.

Step 3

Mix the Sweetener and Milk:

In a small saucepan, combine the almond milk and natural sweetener (Erythritol or Stevia).

Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring continuously until the sweetener dissolves completely.

Remove from heat and add the saffron-infused milk (if using) and cardamom powder. Mix well.

Step 4

Combine the Ingredients:

Pour the sweetened milk mixture into the roasted flours.

Add the desiccated coconut and chopped nuts to the mixture.

Mix well to form a thick, dough-like consistency.

Step 5

Shape the Mithai:

Grease your hands with a little ghee.

Take small portions of the dough and shape them into small, round balls or flatten them into squares.

Place the shaped mithai on a serving tray lined with parchment paper.

Step 6

Garnish and Set:

Sprinkle the finely grated coconut over the mithai pieces for garnish.

Press the garnish lightly to ensure it sticks to the mithai.

Allow the mithai to set at room temperature for at least 1 hour before serving.

Cooking Tips

  • Consistency: Ensure the dough is neither too dry nor too wet. Adjust the amount of almond milk if necessary.
  • Roasting: Roast the flours on medium heat and stir continuously to prevent burning.
  • Sweetness Level: Adjust the quantity of natural sweeteners to suit your taste preferences.
  • Shaping: Grease your hands with ghee to prevent the dough from sticking while shaping the mithai.
