Tziporah Sizomu's Ugandan Charoset from www.myjewishlearning.com
I was looking for a charoset recipe without tree nuts since my great niece and nephew are allergic.
In Uganda, apples were very expensive and peanuts (or 'ground nuts') were grown locally.
This version is very moist from the bananas, without even adding the wine. And I only used 1-2 Tbsp or so of honey
Ingredients:
4 cups roasted peanuts
3 apples, chopped fine
2 bananas chopped into small pieces
1/2 cup honey - I used only 1-2 Tbsp. Add slowly.
1/2 cup sweet wine (or not)
Directions:
1) Grind peanuts in a food processor and place in a medium bowl.
2) Mix in chopped apples and bananas
3) Add wine (optional) and stir.
4) Add honey and mix. If it's not thick enough, add more peanuts.
