This recipe for Vegan Gajar Halwa (Carrot Pudding) was created in partnership with Hamilton Beach Canada, as one of their brand ambassadors. All opinions, as always, are my own. I only write about and recommend products I use and love myself. Diwali came and went by in a blur this year. A nice quiet meal, family time together, and lots of love and laughter were all we needed to bring in the festival of lights. And sweets of course. Loads and loads of sweets. After all, what is Diwali if not for the sweets? While traditionally, people tend to make the classic Indian desserts loaded with ghee, milk and dried fruits, I for one, never cared for them. I find them cloyingly sweet for my taste and often just give them a pass after a bite or two. This year, however, I wanted to try something different. So I decided to make do with something unconventional. What can I say, fusion is definitely my thing and I love what a mix of cultures can bring to the table. This recipe for Vegan Gajar Halwa is fairly simple to make – much easier than the traditional version, and with the use of a food processor can surely be done at the drop of a hat. Try it, I promise you won’t regret it! Here’s wishing all my readers a Very Happy and Prosperous Diwali! For more special Diwali recipes, please click here.
