Mix the grape molasses and hot water in a bowl.
Melt the butter in a pan and add the kavut flour once the foam settles.
Toast the kavut flour for 9 minutes, stirring until it smells nutty.
Add the salt, then pour the molasses water into the pan in two additions.
Cook the mixture for 5 minutes, until it becomes soft and spoonable.
Coarsely chop the walnuts and stir half of them into the hot mixture.
Scatter the remaining walnuts on top and serve hot.
💡 Tip: Toast the kavut flour in butter without burning it; when the color deepens by one shade before the molasses goes in, bitterness will not form.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve kavut in small bowls for a winter breakfast with optional walnuts, clotted cream, and strong tea.
