Navrathri is just around the corner. Are you worried about maintaining your health while navigating your way through the festival season? Or maybe you want to avoid gifting too many sugary sweets? Whatever be the motivation, you have come to the right place.
These 5 healthy laddu recipes use dates as the sweetener instead of refined sugar. Most recipes are vegan too!!
Atta ke ladoo or Wheat ke Laddu
This is one of the most popular blog recipes made with whole wheat flour, walnuts and dates. It is the perfect recipe for serving guests that come to your home or package as cute, little gifts to give others. A perfectly healthy and delicious treat.
This is a low fat, low sugar version of the original Rava laddu. This uses coconut milk as the binder and crunchy apples instead of rich, fried nuts. This is a great dessert for those watching their waistlines as they celebrate the season. Just remember to store these ladoos in the refrigerator due to the extra moisture content.
This is a protein-packed laddu for either growing children or the gym addict in your family. It is the easiest laddu to make, vegan and packed with fiber and protein.
This laddu is a calcium powerhouse. With just 2 ingredients, it is very easy to make and will be the perfect laddu for the elders in the family or the ones that have an affinity for slightly bitter-sweet dishes.
Chana dal is one of the most underrated daals. A powerhouse in protein and fiber, this ladoo can double as a breakfast food – it is that good!! While it might take a slightly longer time to make this ladoo, this recipe is a great recipe for kids, adults, and elders in your family. You have got to try this!!
