Vegan Gajar Halwa

My take on a favorite Indian dessert.

My take on a favorite Indian dessert.

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoon coconut seed oil

  • 20 oz grated carrots

  • 1 1 fl oz of Coconut creamer

  • 1 cup chopped pistachios

  • 1 cup almond meal

  • 6-8 pods of crushed cardamom

Steps:

Saute the carrots in oil, add the creamer and cook till the carrots are soft.  Add the remaining ingredients.  Add maple syrup if needed.  Serve hot or cold.

Notes:

This version is a quick and easy one, and a crowd pleaser.  I do not add any sweetener since the coconut milk and carrot have enough sweetness.  The almond meal gives it the richness of a typical halwa.
