Ingredients
Dry Fruits
- 1/4 cup Cashews
- 1/4 cup Walnuts
- 1/4 cup Almonds
- 1/4 cup Pistachios
Other Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled Oats
- 30 Dates pitted dates recommended; adjust amount based on date size and desired sweetness
- 1 tbsp Ghee
- 3/4 cup Water for soaking dates and making date paste
- 1 tsp Ghee for roasting the oat mixture
Instructions
Prepare the Dates
- Soak pitted dates in warm water for 15 minutes.
- Drain the dates and blend them into a smooth paste with 3/4 cup of water using a food processor or blender.
Prepare the Oat Mixture
- Combine rolled oats, cashews, walnuts, almonds, and pistachios in a food processor or blender.
- Blend until a fine powder is formed.
- Spread the powder on a plate and break up any lumps by gently crumbling with your hands.
Roast and Combine
- Heat 1 teaspoon of ghee in a non-stick pan or kadhai over medium heat.
- Add the oat powder and roast, stirring constantly, until it turns light golden brown. This will take approximately 5-7 minutes.
- Pour in the date paste and stir well to combine.
- Add 1 tablespoon of ghee and continue to stir until the mixture reaches a thick, rolling consistency. This prevents burning and ensures a smooth texture.
Set and Cut the Burfi
- Grease an 8x8 inch baking dish or tray with ghee.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared tray and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Sprinkle with finely chopped pistachios.
- Let the burfi cool and set completely at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Once set, cut into squares or desired shapes.
Serve and Store
- Serve and store the burfi in an airtight container at room temperature. It will stay fresh for approximately 3-4 days.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Sugar-Free Burfi
- Date Selection: Use high-quality, soft dates for the best flavor and texture. Medjool dates are excellent for this recipe.
- Roasting Technique: Low and slow roasting is key to prevent burning the oat mixture. Constant stirring is essential for even cooking and to avoid sticking.
- Consistency Check: The mixture is ready when it forms a soft, pliable dough that holds its shape when pressed gently. It shouldn't be too dry or too wet.
- Storage: Storing the burfi in an airtight container prevents it from drying out and maintains its freshness for a longer period.
