Golpapdi- A traditional dessert made with wheat flour,ghee and Jaggary

Golpapdi or Gur papdi / kansaar is a popular and traditional dessert or sweet from Gujarat which is specially made during winter. Golpapdi / kansaar is also popular in Sindhi community as sukhdi and in my home town Mathura we call this –kasaar. It is quite an easy recipe which is great as a dessert, a healthy recipe for kids lunchbox and good as a travel food and have a long shelf life .

A good amount of ghee, jaggary, dry fruits and sesame seeds goes into it which gives warmth and energy to our body,sesame seeds and nuts are very good for health as they are rich in calcium ,fat and minerals.

As A Post Natal Food-

You can also add warm spices and herbs into it like nutmeg powder,dry ginger powder,clove powder, fried and crushed edible gum/ gond, dry grated coconut etc according to your choice if making for new mothers or lactating mothers.This version is called as Vasanu in Gujarati.

I have made the simple basic version but you can adjust it as per your choice. The amount of jaggary can also be slightly adjusted according to your taste preference.

If you are looking for few winter special recipes then try-

  • Amla ki Chyawanprash style chutney
  • Date and Almond Milk
  • Harira/ Gud ki path
  • Shalgum Ka Bharta
  • Bathua Ka Raita

    Hi. Kansaar and sukhdi are quite different. Kansaar users coarsely ground wheat flour and is more like halva or sheera.
    Also your recipe is more like vasaana, which has all the above ingredients and also edible gum.
    Sukhdi is simply wheat flour ghee and jaggery. Method is what you have written.

      Hi Shweta , In my home town and My community Kansaar is made exactly like this with jaggary ,wheat flour and sesame seeds, Addition of nuts is optional though. I have given the option of making it more healthier and nutritious by adding edible gum and spices if making it for new mothers, its not in the main recipe card .
