Oats Ladoo, with the goodness of oats and richness of ghee, nuts, and a little touch of natural sweetness, is truly a healthy and yummy Indian sweet. These nutritious, bite-sized treats are perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth while providing a good source of fibre and energy. Oats ladoo is an ideal snack for those who want to indulge without guilt. The oats ladoo recipe starts with roasting oats in a pan until golden brown and fragrant. Oats are then powdered into a coarse texture. Ghee is melted in the same pan, and nuts such as cashews, almonds, or pistachios are added for crunch and flavour. Jaggery, sugar, and cardamom powder give it a subtle, aromatic taste. The roasted oats and nuts are mixed with the ghee and sweetener, and everything is kneaded until it comes together in dough form. Once the mixture is cooled, it's shaped into small round balls, or ladoos, by hand. These healthy sweets can be served as a snack, a quick breakfast, or an energy-boosting pickup after exercise. The oats ladoo recipe is easy to customise by adding dry fruits, seeds, or coconut for texture and flavour. With wholesome ingredients and a pleasing taste, oats ladoo strikes the health-indulgence balance perfectly, which is why this dish is unique.
