Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon psyllium husk
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup hot water
- 4 tablespoons ghee
- 1 cup almond milk
- 0.5 cup erythritol
- 1 teaspoon rose water
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 0.5 cup blanched almond flour
- 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
To make the puris, mix almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
Gradually add hot water while mixing, until a dough forms. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
Divide the dough into 8 small balls. Roll each ball between two sheets of parchment paper to form round puris.
Heat 2 tablespoons of ghee in a skillet over medium heat. Fry each puri until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Set aside on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
For the halwa, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of ghee in a saucepan.
Add blanched almond flour to the saucepan and roast until golden brown and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.
In another saucepan, heat almond milk and erythritol until the erythritol dissolves completely.
Stir in rose water and cardamom, and then combine with the roasted almond flour.
Cook the mixture on low heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens to a pudding-like consistency, 8-10 minutes.
Serve the puris warm with the halwa, garnished with chopped nuts if desired.
