Oats Ladoo
Oats ladoos are a delicious and nutritious Indian sweet that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are made with a combination of rolled oats, desiccated coconut, jaggery powder, ghee, chopped mixed nuts, green cardamom powder, and water. The oats are roasted until golden brown and fragrant, and then ground into a fine powder. The oat powder is then combined with the other ingredients to form a dough, which is rolled into small balls and pressed into ladoos. The ladoos are then left to cool and set for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Oats ladoos have a long and storied history, dating back to the ancient Indian subcontinent. They were originally created as a way to use up leftover oats, and over time they have evolved into a popular and beloved sweet treat. Oats ladoos are often served during festivals and celebrations, and they are also a popular snack food. They are a good source of fiber, protein, and healthy fats, and they are also a good source of vitamins and minerals.
