Recipe Ingredients <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Ingredients<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Almond flour<\/strong>: I use store-bought almond flour to save time. You can also blanch, peel, and dry whole almonds before grinding them into a fine powder. Don\u2019t pulse for too long or the almonds will turn into butter. Sieve the almond powder to remove any bits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Milk powder:<\/strong> This gives the almond burfi its soft, tender texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sugar and water:<\/strong> They are cooked together to make a one-string consistency sugar syrup, which sweetens and binds the burfi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cardamom and saffron:<\/strong> Cardamom adds warmth while saffron gives a delicate flavor and color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
