I made this laddo as prasad to Ganeshji, but they have become a great hit in my family. My 10 month old DS is just in love with them. Yesterday I was clicking pics of laddos for post and he saw me. Then what, he started saying "mum" "mum" " mum". He recognized that this is same "mum" which we gave him day before. I had to stop photography and had to feed him first. He loved them soo very much that if I keep on giving him one whole laddo he would have had it. But he is still a baby. After giving him about half a laddo, I started saying finish finish and his face became small like he was asking for some more....Aahhh.. but cant give him more.
These laddos are quiet healthy and opt for expecting ladies and BF moms. Even good for weaning babies. Best part is they get ready quickly and very tasty. Not much efforts required and you have wonderful dessert to serve.
Ingredients:
1 cup Wheat flour
1/2 cup sugar powder
1/4 cup ghee
1 tsp cardamom powder
1/4 cup dry grated coconut(optional)
2 tbsp ghee roasted dry fruits
Method:
- Add ghee to pan and then shift wheat flour to it. Roast flour this it starts leaving ghee or you see that mixture becomes liquidy. This process will take around 10 to 15 mins. While roasting continuously keep on stirring flour so that it will get cooked evenly.
- After ghee starts leaving, roast for another minute or two till you see flour becoming slightly golden in colour. Add coconut at this stage.
- Now take pan off gas stove and allow it to cool for 10 mins.
- Mean while crush roasted dry fruits. If you want you can take them without roasting. But roasting them will give nice crunchy texture to laddos.
- Now add sugar, cardamom and dryfruits and mix well.
- Make laddos with hand and store them in air tight container. Can be kept without refrigerating for 10 days.
