Tear the bread slices and coarsely pulse the bread in a processor. Set aside.
In a heavy heated pan, add a teaspoon of ghee and fry the cashews and raisins (I didn't add raisins). Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Add the remaining ghee and toss the coarsely crushed bread and fry for a few minutes.
Sprinkle sugar and milk and let it cook. Sprinkle almond flour and continue to mix continuously until it comes together as a single mass.
Pour in the saffron milk and cashews and gently mix them in and remove from heat.
Transfer the halwa into any decorative container like a tart cup. Press the halwa and de-mould it after a while.
Serve it warm and enjoy.
