Recipe for Homemade Dates and Nut Ladoos
Creating your batch of healthy Date and Nut Ladoos is a delightful dietary adventure. Here's what you'll need to make this nutritious recipe: 1 cup of pitted dates, 1/2 cup of a mix of your favourite nuts (almonds, cashews, and walnuts work wonderfully), a pinch of aromatic cardamom powder, and a teaspoon of ghee or coconut oil.
Here is the step-by-step guide to making delicious homemade treats :
To start, soak the dates in warm water for about 15 minutes to soften them up. While they're soaking, gently roast the mixed nuts until they take on a lovely, golden hue.
After draining the dates, blend them into a smooth paste, adding the cardamom powder for a burst of flavour. Then, pulse the roasted nuts until they have a coarse texture, and mix them with the date paste.
Now, the fun part– shape the mixture into little ladoos. A little ghee on your hands will make it easier. Store your creations in an airtight container. You have a batch of nutritious, guilt-free sweets ready to enjoy.
