2 tbsp sugar
1 green cardamom pod
1 tbsp water

Steps

Trim the bread crusts and reserve them, then toast the slices in oil or melted butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes per side.
Simmer the oat milk, almond flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, saffron, and cardamom in a saucepan over low heat for 12 minutes, stirring often.
Simmer the maple syrup, remaining sugar, and water in a small saucepan for 5 minutes, then stir in the lime juice.
Toast the reserved crusts and cashews in the skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes, then crush them with the flour.
