Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 tablespoon Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 cup Erythritol
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Almond milk (unsweetened)
- 10 strands Saffron strands
- 0.5 teaspoon Cardamom powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Rose water
- 2 tablespoons Pistachios (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Almonds (sliced)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and erythritol.
Add the eggs to the dry mixture and mix well to form a dough.
Divide the dough into small, equal portions and roll them into balls, flattening slightly to form patties.
Place the patties on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until they are lightly golden.
While the patties are baking, prepare the milk reduction by heating the heavy cream and almond milk in a saucepan over medium heat.
Add the saffron strands, cardamom powder, and rose water to the milk mixture, stirring occasionally.
Cook the milk mixture until it reduces by about half and becomes thick and creamy, which should take approximately 15 minutes.
Remove the patties from the oven and let them cool slightly.
Gently place the cooled patties in the milk mixture and let them soak for a few minutes, ensuring they absorb the flavors.
Transfer the Keto Rasmalai to a serving dish, garnish with chopped pistachios and sliced almonds.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
