Besan Badam Katli – A Chickpea flour fudge is an indian dessert made of gram flour and almond powder. This fudge is modified version of Besan ka Halwa
The recipe for Besan Badam Katli – A Chickpea flour fudge uses equal amount of chickpea flour & almond meal. For this recipe , I have powdered the whole almond. Store bought almond flour can also be used. As a sweetener I have used condense milk.
The process starts with slow roasting of besan in ghee at very moderate temperature. Continuous stirring is required as besan has the tendency to burn off very easily. Once you get the aroma of nuttiness, it means our besan is ready to go to next step. The other alternative to check if it has roasted properly is that it is in a dripping consistency. Now we add the almond flour and roast for few more minutes.
As mawa is not easily available, I substitute it with roasted milk powder. I am planning to do a separate post for it and will share it on my insta stories the entire process.So keep checking there. And lastly we have added condense milk as a sweetener. And flavored with nutmeg powder. This flavoring pairs very well with this katli.
We can set this katli in a tray. But I love serving it in mini shapes for individual serving garnished with some pistachio. Grease any mould with ghee & press this katli into it. This has to be done when the mix is hot. And once cold and set demould.
