Wheat Ladoos

Is your kid a fussy eater? These wheat laddos are the best option to give them as a mid day snack. Wheat is a healthy option to use in making ladoos. I have also added **'dinka', almonds powder to make it more healthier for kids. My little one loves to take these ladoos to her school or eat it as a mid day snack

Ingredients
1 cup of wheat atta
1/2 cup of desi ghee  (clarified butter)
3/4 cup of powdered sugar ( as per the sweet taste)
dinka 1 tbs
15 almonds

Method
  1. Take some ghee in a kadhai,  add the wheat atta and roast till wheat changes colour to light brown or till you get that heavenly smell of the atta getting roasted.
  2. Make almond powder by using a mixer grinder. Add this powder to the roasted atta. Mix well.
  3. Take the remaining ghee in a small pan and fry the 'dinka' till they popup and become crispy. Cool the 'dinka' and crush well using back side of a 'katori'. Add the ghee to the roasted atta, add the 'dinka' powder, powdered sugar to the atta and mix all the ingredients well.
  4. Make small ball shape ladoos. Can store the ladoos till a week.
** 'Dinka' is edible gum in English or popularly known as 'Gond ' in Hindi. It is very good source of calcium and growing bones
