Smart Cooking Tips:
- Adding cashew nuts and raisins are optional. You can add any of your favorite nuts like almonds, pistachios, and pecans.
- If you find difficult to shape the laddoos, add extra warm ghee to the wheat flour mixture and shape the laddoos, warm ghee helps to bind the laddoos.
-
Roasting the wheat flour until the color changes to a golden brown is an important step in making these laddoos. If the wheat flour is not get roasted properly then the laddoos will taste the raw wheat flour.
- Roast the wheat flour over a medium flame and keep stirring to avoid the wheat flour from getting burned.
-
If you do not have powdered sugar handy just blend the granulated white sugar in a mixer or blender until smooth.
-
You can use store bought cardamom powder instead of freshly crushed cardamoms. Personally, I like the freshly crushed cardamom that is more flavorful than the store bought cardamom powder.

My fav ladoo.. your version looks interesting.. will try sometime
Sumi says
Tried wheat laddoo but they were too dry to bind. Had to mix some milk to make them a laddoo shape. What went wrong?
They tasted good but left a bit of bitterness in the end. It was very mild but I could feel it.
Followed your recipe as it is.

Hi,
Sorry, it didn’t work out for you. It is because of the wheat flour quality. Some wheat flour requires an extra amount of ghee for binding. For bitterness, the roasting time and temperature may be the reason. Hope it will turn out good for you the next time.
