Recipe: Mixed Dry Fruit Sweet (No-Sugar Festive Delight)
This easy, no-cook recipe is perfect for festive preparation. It’s healthy, delicious, and can be made in advance, ideal for busy celebrations.
Ingredients:
- Almonds
- Cashews
- Pistachios
- Walnuts
- Dates (seedless)
- Raisins
- Melon seeds (optional)
- Cardamom powder
- 1 tablespoon ghee (optional)
Preparation:
Start by roughly chopping all the dry fruits—almonds, cashews, pistachios, and walnuts. This ensures a nice mix of textures in every bite.
In a blender or food processor, add the dates and grind them into a soft paste. Dates act as a natural sweetener and binding agent, so there’s no need to add refined sugar.
Next, add the chopped dry fruits, raisins, melon seeds, and cardamom powder to the date paste. Mix everything well. If needed, add a small amount of ghee to bring the mixture together and enhance the flavour.
Once combined, transfer the mixture onto a greased plate or tray. Flatten it evenly using a spatula or your hands.
Let it set in the refrigerator for about 30–40 minutes. Once firm, cut it into squares or diamond-shaped pieces.
