Peanut Ladoo Recipe | Peanut Laddu Recipe

Peanut Ladoo is one of the easiest sweets you can ever make at home. It is made using just roasted peanuts and jaggery, both ground together and rolled into balls. I love how nutty and sweet this tastes, and the best part is you don’t even need a drop of water to make this.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • First measure 1 cup of raw peanuts, dry roast till nicely browned and the outer skin start to come out.
  • Rub the peanuts with your hands and blow away the skin this is the easy way to remove the skin.
  • Then take peanuts in a mixer and give a quick grind as fine as possible. It will be slightly coarse only.
  • Now scrap the sides, add jaggery and then grind it again. Do not grind further more as it might let out oil and might turn sticky. This is the most important step in this peanut ladoo recipe.
  • Transfer this to a bowl, add cardamom powder and ghee.
  • Mix well and break the lumps formed.
  • Finally shape them into small balls. Similarly make the other ladoos too. Delicious peanut ladoo is ready!
  • Serve as a snack. To summarize this peanut ladoo is such a quick and easy recipe as you can see. So do try and enjoy!

Notes

  • Roast well – Try to roast the peanuts properly. The skin should peel easily and smell nice. If under-roasted, it won’t taste good.
  • Grind in steps – First grind peanuts alone, then add jaggery. Don’t overgrind, else the mix will turn oily and sticky.
  • Ghee optional – Ghee is just for flavor. I usually add it if I have some in hand, otherwise skip and still it turns out fine.
  • If mixture hardens – If ladoo mix turns dry or hard at end, warm it slightly for 30 secs, then try shaping again.
  • For crunch – If you like a crunchy bite, don’t grind too fine. I sometimes even crush some peanuts separately and mix in.
