I love nolen gur (its a special jaggery that you find in Bengal in winter). Since I had some left in the freezer thought would try something different. Decided to bake a cake with nolen gur instead of sugar. After baking the cake, there was some jaggery left over so also made "nolen gurer payesh".
Sharing the recipe of Nolen Gur Cake with Oats. If you do not have this variety of jaggery, you can always substitute with 1 cup of sugar.
2 cups flour
1 cup jaggery (nolen gur)
1/2 cup oil
25 gms butter
1 cup oats
2 tsp baking powder
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla essence
- Mix all the ingredients in a blender
- Grease a baking dish and pour the mixture in.
- Sprinkle some crushed oats on top.
- Set the oven temperature to 200 degrees and bake for around 45 minutes or till a fork comes out clean.
I love jaggery bakes too:-)
