Mohanthal is a rich and traditional Gujarati sweet made from gram flour (besan), ghee, and sugar, often flavoured with cardamom and topped with chopped nuts. The besan is slow-roasted in ghee until golden and aromatic, giving it a deep, nutty flavour. It has a soft, melt-in-the-mouth texture with a slightly grainy bite. Usually prepared during festivals like Diwali or Janmashtami, Mohanthal is loved for its comforting taste and nostalgic connection to home-cooked sweets.
