Calories: 139kcal
Ingredients
- ½ cup Pearl Millet Flour
- ¼ cup Powdered/Grated Jaggery
- ⅛ tsp Cardamom Powder
- 4 tbsp Melted Ghee
Instructions
Prep-Work:
- Make the homemade pearl millet flour as mentioned in this post, or you can use store-bought one as well. You can dry the store-bought for a couple of minutes, but that is optional.
- Melt the ghee and set aside.
Steps:
- Pulse the kambu flour, jaggery, and cardamom in a mixer jar. This step ensures that all the ingredients are mixed thoroughly.
- Take this in a big plate and two tbsps of ghee and mix it thoroughly.
- Now take a small batch, and add little ghee and shape it into a small round ball. Press the laddu tightly so that it stays intact.
- Similarly, make laddus with the remaining flour.

Notes
- You can use any millet flour and prepare laddu in the same way. Instead of jaggery, you can include sugar.
- Add ghee as required while making the laddu.
- You can add powdered/crushed nuts or whole nuts as well. I kept it nut-free and also simple with minimal ingredients.
- If you include nuts, add little extra ghee while shaping the laddus.
