Badam Burfi (Vegan)

Can you prepare a dessert with five ingredients? That's exactly what I will show you today.

Desserts are everyone's favorite part of a sumptuous meal and Vegan Almond Squares fits the bill perfectly! Almond Squares, (a.k.a Almond burfi in India) is one of my childhood favorite among barfi recipes. Coconut Barfi is probably the most popular version, but this vegan almond barfi version will be an eye-opener for those who have never tried it.

There are several ways to prepare barfi recipes and several ways to add aroma. Most of the barfi recipes show cardamom flavor.

In today's recipe, I show a fresh and new way of adding aroma. I have used saffron strands. Although a little is more expensive than cardamom, saffron strands show their presence with their divine and rich aroma.

As few as 4-5 strands of this wonder spice goes a long way in adding flavor to your Barfi.

It can sometimes be difficult to get the right consistency and texture when you prepare almond barfi. It is important to keep the mixture stirred at all times. Read my step by step instructions and my video for more details.

As the festival and holiday season is approaching, Vegan Almond burfi can be an excellent dessert option.

Try it today and let me know how you like it! Vegan desserts are a lot simpler than you think, but there are some basic essentials you will need to make it easy.
