Healthy Laadu

When weekends comes , you always are happy and you want to do something. I am always excited about weekends as i get to cook and make something new. This weekend i wanted to make some sweet but healthy too so decided to make this healthy laadu.

Ingredients

Flax seeds 1/4 cup
Peanuts 1/2 cup
Oats 1/2 cup
Cardamom powder 1 tsp
Ghee 2 tbsp
Jageery 2 tbsp

Method :

1. Roast oats lightly on a pan until you get an aroma. This would take about 5 minutes. Once roasted keep aside to cool
2. Roast peanuts too on a pan on a low flame. This would also take about 5 minutes. Keep aside for cool. (i did not remove the skin but if you wish you can do the same)
3. Wash the flax seeds 2-3 times in water and dry roast them too. Roast until this splutters like mustard seeds . Ensure this doesn't get burnt

4. Grate Jaggery
5. Add the roasted oats, peanuts and flax seeds in a blender. Grind coarsely
6. Heat the ghee
7. Remove the mixture in a bowl and add jaggery n ghee
8.  Now mix gently and form laadu. Add more ghee if required

Store it in a air tight container.

You can replace dates instead of Jaggery.

You can also add dry fruits if you wish too. You just need to roast them and cut them fine and add in the mixture before you form the laadu.

A tinch of love :-)
