Indulge in the authentic flavors of Pinni, a classic Indian dessert crafted with time-honored techniques. This cherished sweet is a staple at family gatherings and festive occasions.
Toast the wheat flour in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly for 12–15 minutes until it turns golden brown and emits a nutty aroma.
Add ghee and continue to roast the flour for 3–4 minutes, mixing thoroughly to ensure even coating and avoid burning.
Add finely chopped almonds, cashews, and raisins to the pan. Sauté on low heat for another 3–4 minutes until the nuts are fragrant.
Incorporate khoya (if using) and cook for 2–3 more minutes, stirring to blend and prevent sticking; then turn off the heat and allow the mixture to cool until just warm.
Add sugar and cardamom powder, then mix well, ensuring all ingredients are evenly distributed and the mixture is still moldable.
While the mixture is still warm but comfortably handled, shape small portions into round balls (Pinni) using your palms, pressing firmly to hold their shape.
Let the Pinnis cool completely at room temperature before storing in an airtight container to retain their freshness and texture.
