With only four ingredients and five minutes to make this is one of the easiest Barfis to make. There is no need to worry about making sugar syrup as well as how thick/stringy the syrup needs to be. Its as simple as mixing the ingredients!
The recipe has been shared by my friend Reeta. She is an amazing cook and I just love her Gujarati dishes. Definitely will plan on some tutorials to learn all the goodies from her, so I can pass on the recipes to my lovely readers.
Reeta makes this very often, but she does grind her own nuts. I am always on the lookout for making the recipe easier and of course I thought of the bag of Almond Flour in my fridge. The recipe is also perfect as it is made with ingredients that we normally always have at home, no special trips to the grocery store. The Barfi turns out soft and moist.
The barfi does have a shelf life of almost a month in the refrigerator and about 10-12 days on the countertop, stored in an air tight container, though I can assure you there will be no left overs! Make it for Rakhi,Diwali, Holi or any festival or even when you are fasting during Navratri as the protein from the Almonds keeps you full.
I also like to use Almond Flour instead of bread crumbs in Spinach Potato Cakes/Palak Aloo Ki Tikki. Some of my easy, quick dessert recipes are Instant Shahi Tukra, Kalakand, Mango Mousse without egg,gelatin or agar agar and Kheer in a crock pot.
Here is the written recipe followed by the step by step pictorial one-
