These protein rich almonds have wrapped me in today. Because almond milk powder is what whipped up in my kitchen and the luxuriously creamy, nutty and sweet taste of almond milk is still lingering in my mouth. Though I am not a big lover of beverages, badam milk doesn’t let me from being loved. And the healthy ingredients that makes badam milk powder immensely entice me towards it.
Let me tell you how I happened to arrive at badam milk powder. It happened like this. Back in India when I was holidaying, I went to shop some unique groceries that is authentic to Udupi. This kind of shopping I do every year to pick up somethings from my favorite, reliable shops so that I am not deprived from those here in UAE. And that list includes distinct pickles, fryums and powders. So this year when all this was happening, a packet of ready made badam powder in a shop fall at my sight. I didn’t buy it but I looked for the recipe. I wanted to know what all ingredients that go in to this powder apart from ALMONDS. To my surprise I could easily get the exact recipe.
So today with all my enthusiasm I prepared a jar full of badam milk powder. And it was absolutely perfect in texture which resulted in unbelievably amazing nutty drink. The milk powder and arrowroot powder made the beverage creamy and tasty. The flavor of cardamom powder, color from saffron and turmeric is too appetizing.
It’s creamy goodness, heaven sent. Trust me.

Yashoda, Almonds are powdered so finely in this recipe that I don’t even notice them. In fact I included few small pieces of almonds to bite while drinking. Hope you try this. Thank you for positive feedback.
