- Preheat the oven.
- Separately mix unsalted butter/A2 ghee and coconut milk. Whisk well.
- Add vanilla essence, cardamom powder, mashed bananas, date puree, and beetroot powder and mix until even.
- Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture.
- Once done, add a little coconut milk , chopped almonds, and walnuts and adjust the consistency.

Power Tip:
If the cake sinks in the middle, there are chances that the tray used for baking was too small. Using more milk than the desired quantity also makes it sink. Be mindful of this.
Notes:
Apart from being rich in protein, sattu has generous proportions of iron, manganese, and magnesium. It is low in sodium. Adding oats flour provides fiber and other essential nutrients. Enjoy this special Valentine’s Day treat!
