Almond Milk Kheer Recipe

Almond Milk Kheer Recipe offered to Krishna in a traditional bowl, garnished with a flower and almonds.

Hare Krishna Almond Milk Kheer is a rich and dairy-free dessert perfect for any occasion. This easy-to-make kheer combines almond milk with rice and jaggery, creating a creamy and delicious sweet dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1/4 cup rice, washed and soaked
  • 2 tablespoons jaggery (or more to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
  • A few strands of saffron (optional)
  • Chopped almonds for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Cook Rice: In a saucepan, bring the almond milk to a boil. Add the soaked rice and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the rice, stirring occasionally, until it is tender and the almond milk has thickened (about 20 minutes).
  2. Add Sweetener and Spices: Stir in the jaggery, cardamom powder, and saffron (if using). Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the jaggery is fully dissolved and the kheer has a creamy consistency.
  3. Garnish and Serve: Pour the kheer into bowls, garnish with chopped almonds if desired, and serve warm or chilled.

Notes

  • Rice Preparation: Soaking the rice before cooking helps it cook faster and become more tender.
  • Sweetener Option: Adjust the amount of jaggery to your taste, or substitute with maple syrup or coconut sugar for a different flavor.
  • Serving Suggestion: Almond Milk Kheer can be enjoyed warm or chilled, depending on your preference. It makes a great dessert for festivals or special occasions.
  • Storage Tip: Leftover kheer can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently before serving, or enjoy it chilled.
