One measure of Oats Flour One measure of Almond powder Sugar according to taste Cardamom Powder Roasted cashews and raisins for garnish Cook the oats and almond flour together in the cooker with water and milk combined in the ratio desired.

One measure Oats Flour One measure Milk One measure Almond meal or powder One measure ghee Two measure Sugar I used a standard 1/2 cup measure for the above recipe. For the one measure of Almond powder, I used half almonds and half finely shredded coconut. Combine all the ingredients in a pan and make sure there are no lumps in the mixture. Start cooking at medium high heat. Keep stirring the mixture to ensure that it does not get burnt at the bottom. The mixture is ready once it all comes together leaving the sides of the pan. Have a greased plate ready to pour the mixture. For the quantity I tried it took about 12-15 mts. Once it is ready, quickly transfer the dough to the greased plate. Let it cool slightly before you cut into desired shape. This was sent to "CWF-Oats" event hosted by Priya of easyntastyrecipes@blogspot.com
