For Base:

- Chickpea flour (white chana flour/garbanzo beans flour): ¼ cup
- Cold-pressed coconut Oil: 3 tbsp
- Hot Water: as required (for kneading into a soft dough)
For Filling:
- Almond Powder (coarsely ground): 2 tbsp
- Cashew powder (coarsely ground): 2 tbsp
- Raisins: 1 tbsp
- Jaggery powder: 2 tbsp
- Desiccated Coconut Powder: 2 tbsp
- Cardamom Powder: 1 tsp
For Date Syrup:
- Pitted Dates: 1/2cup
- Water: 1 cup
For Garnish:
- Finely chopped nuts (pistachios & cashews)
- Dried Rose Petals
- Poppy Seeds
Method
- Mix rice flour, chickpea flour & coconut oil.
- Gradually add water to knead into a smooth dough. Cover and keep aside for 10 minutes.
- To make the filling: grind almonds & cashews (separately) into a coarse powder.
- Put all the ingredients mentioned under “For Filling” in a mixing bowl. Mix well.
- Divide the dough into equal-sized balls, about 10-12.
- Stuff these balls completely with the filling and seal properly (use little water, if required). Make spherical shapes, like pops.
- If using an OTG: preheat the oven at 180℃ for 8-10 minutes. Bake these stuffed balls/Gujiya pops in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes at 180℃.
- If using an Airfryer: preheat the Airfryer for 10 minutes at 200℃ & airfry them for 15-20 minutes at 200℃.
- Meanwhile prepare Dates syrup: De-seed the dates & soak them in 1 cup of hot water for 10 minutes. Mash the dates nicely, using your hands. Extract the dates water by straining through a cheesecloth. Boil the dates water until it becomes quite dark, thick and reaches a honey like consistency. Switch off the flame once done. Allow to cool down to room temperature.
- Dip the baked Gujiya pops in the date syrup & roll it over coarsely powdered pistachios, cashews.
- Garnish with dried rose petals, poppy seeds to add more colours.
- Insert a toothpick in the centre of the gujiya pops & serve!
