As the temperatures drop and we start to feel the onset of Autumn dryness, we need to nourish our bodies with warmth and sweetness.

The unsweetened almond milk and ghee in this recipe contribute to heart and bone health. Almond milk is fortified with calcium, and contains vitamin D, which aids in calcium absorption and promotes bone growth. Dates add fibre and are rich in iron and provide an immediate energy boost.
