RecipeIngredients
For the cashew rolls:
  • 1 cup cashew nuts
  • ¼ cup hot water
  • ¼ cup coconut flour
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2-3 drops of rose essence (or rose water)
For the filling:
  • ¾ cup dried figs, chopped finely
  • 2 tbsp ghee (or coconut oil for dairy free)
  • ½ cup walnuts, chopped
  • ¼ tsp cardamom powder(optional)
RecipeInstructions
For the cashew rolls:
  1. Powder the cashew nuts in a food processor until fine (Make sure there are no big pieces. Process in short 10 sec pulses else you will get cashew butter). Add to a mixing bowl.
  2. Add the hot water to the bowl and stir using a spatula. You will get a sticky dough.
  3. Next add the coconut flour and mix until it's all completely mixed. Cover and let the dough cool for a few minutes.
  4. After the mixture is cool, add the honey and the rose essence. Stir to blend well and until you get a smooth dough texture.
  5. Place in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
For the filling:
  1. In a heating pan add the ghee (or coconut oil) and add the chopped figs. Sir and cook for about 5 minutes until the figs are softened. Let cool for a few minutes.
  2. Blend the fig mixture with the chopped walnuts until you get a coarse mixture. Transfer to a bowl and add cardaomom powder if adding and use as filling.
To make the rolls (Best to watch my step by step video -see above):
  1. Spread the cashew nut dough onto a parchment sheet to form a 6 inch by 8 inch rectangle.
  2. Make a cut in the center of this rectangle so you have two 6 inch by 4 inch rectangles.
  3. Now place the filling on each rectangle along one side of it and then roll with the help of parchment paper to get a rolled up log. Place the rolled logs in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.
  4. Take the logs out and using a sharp knife cut them into rolls of desired length.
