Persian Yazdi Cakes Recipe

Ingredients

For the yazdi cake:

220g almond flour
150g coconut sugar
200ml almond milk
1 teaspoon Steenbergs organic Fairtrade vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
100g finely ground pistachios
100ml coconut oil, melted
1/s teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt

For the filling and topping:

200g of pistachios, crushed
8 cardamom pods, deseeded and crushed
100g coconut sugar

For the rosewater syrup:

150ml of filtered water
2 teaspoons of Steenbergs organic rosewater
50g coconut sugar (all melted together in a small saucepan for 5 minutes)

Using a delicate blend of rose water and cardamom, these delicious Persian cakes have been created by Niki Behjousiar of nikibakes.co.uk

Makes up to 20 cake squares

Prep time: 5 minutes

Cooking time: 20 -25 minutes

Total time: 1 hour 25 minutes (to include cooking time and pouring over the rosewater syrup)


Method

  1. Preheat your oven to gas mark 4 or 180°c and grease your square brownie baking dish with extra coconut oil and line with greaseproof paper. Whisk your melted coconut oil and coconut sugar with your vanilla extract, set aside.
  2. In a larger mixing bowl whisk together your dry ingredients which include the almond flour, baking powder, ground pistachios and Himalayan pink salt and start to fold in your ingredients with your wooden spoon. Spoon out half of your cake mixture and fill you cake with the pistachio- cardamom mixture, leave ¾ of this for the topping of your cake.
  3. Once you have poured over the other half of your cake batter, sprinkle over the remaining pistachios and cardamom topping and bake in your oven for a minimum of 20 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool slightly.
  4. Finally, prick your cake very gently with a fork and pour over the rosewater syrup, allowing it to seep through to your cake. Once completely cooled cut into squares and serve with some strong black tea, delicious!
