Healthy Laddoos

Healthy Laddoos

I know it’s a little late. Dussera was two days ago. But better late than never! Besides, I tried out these laddoos on Saturday and decided to post it as a pre-Diwali one. It uses healthy ingredients like roasted dalia (chana without the skin) and dates for sweetening it. I used a bit of ghee as it tends to become too dry. Also, one needs to keep the mixture a little warm on a non-stick pan while rolling it into laddoos. It’s nutritious and makes for a healthy in-between snack. It would make for an ideal evening snack with a glass of skim milk,   

The recipe is short and simple. The only problem is in mixing it and rolling it. So let’s get on with it.
