Besan Ladoo Recipe | Besan Ladoo With Jaggery Recipe with Video Recipe. Besan Ladoo is one of the most popular sweet with its rich flavor and melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Besan Ladoo is made with besan flour. also known as gram flour, This gluten-free flour is made from ground chickpeas and brings a nutty, earthy flavor to the ladoo. Rich in protein, fiber, and various nutrients, besan adds a nutritional punch to this sweet delicacy.

Traditionally besan ladoo is made with besan, ghee and powdered sugar, but in this recipe I replaced powdered sugar with powdered jaggery for making these ladoos into a healthier version.

Replacing the conventional sugar, jaggery steps in as the sweetener for our Besan Ladoo. Jaggery, made from concentrated sugarcane juice or palm sap, is a natural sweetener with a unique, caramel-like taste. Packed with minerals like iron, magnesium, and potassium, jaggery offers a healthier alternative to refined sugar.

Besan ladoo preparation is very simple. These ladoos are made by slow roasting the besan flour in ghee until it turns aromatic and golden brown in color. Then jaggery syrup, cardamom powder and nuts are added into besan flour and mix well. Finally I have added little hot water into this mixture. Hot water helps in bringing the mixture together. Portions of this warm mixture is pressed down in the palm to shape into ladoo balls. 

Besan Ladoo with jaggery is not just a delectable sweet treat but also a nutritious addition to your festive celebrations. By combining the rich flavors of besan and the natural sweetness of jaggery, you create a delightful dessert that caters to both taste buds and health-conscious minds. So enjoy this guilt free sweet treat. Try this recipe and let me know your valuable feedback.
