Peanut Ladoo

What ingredients do you need to make these Peanut Ladoo’s?

Peanuts –

I have used peanuts and roasted them. You can use almonds, cashews, pistachios as well. Any seeds would also work to make this recipe. 

Coconut –

We need desiccated coconut to make these ladoo’s, it is also known as dried coconut. This is an essential ingredient and has no substitute. It helps bind the mixture together and allows it to stay fresh for a long time. 

Ghee –

These are ladoos, hence ghee is the best option to make them but you could use melted butter as well.

Jaggery –

The flavor of jaggery is perfect in this ladoo. I have used grated jaggery but you can use jaggery powder as well. If you don’t have jaggery, coconut sugar would work too. You can use sugar but the flavor is better with jaggery or palm sugar. 

Flavoring –

I have used cardamom and salt to make this recipe. You can use vanilla, a drop of rose water too. Don’t add too many flavorings as it is a simple delicious Ladoo recipe. 

What equipment do you need to make these Peanut Ladoo’s?

To grind the peanuts we need a food processor/grinder. We need a large platter/thali to mix the ladoo mixture together. I form the ladoos in my hands.
