Prep time: 10 mins | Cook time: 15 mins | Makes: 10–12 ladoos

Ingredients:

1 cup Gourmet Staples Protein Atta
3 tbsp ghee
1/2 cup grated jaggery
2 tbsp chopped almonds or mixed nuts
1/4 tsp cardamom powder
2 tbsp milk (if needed, to bind)

Method:

1. Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan on low flame.
2. Add the Protein Atta and roast on low-medium heat, stirring continuously, until it turns golden and releases a nutty aroma (approx. 8–10 minutes).
3. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
4. Add grated jaggery, chopped nuts, and cardamom powder. Mix well until the jaggery melts into the warm atta.
5. If the mixture feels too dry to bind, add milk one spoon at a time.
6. While still warm, shape the mixture into small round ladoos using your palms.
7. Let them cool completely before storing.

Why This Recipe Works:

Roasting protein atta in ghee brings out a rich flavor while jaggery adds natural sweetness — no refined sugar needed. This makes it a smart, protein-packed alternative to regular store-bought sweets.

No-Added-Sugar Variation

Want ladoos without jaggery or sugar? Replace the jaggery with Gourmet Staples monk fruit sweetener (allulose + monk fruit extract), which is used 1:1 like sugar. Add it after the roasted atta has cooled slightly, and add the milk a spoon at a time, because without jaggery the mixture binds a little less. Chopped dates also help it hold together.

FAQs:

1. How long do protein atta ladoos last?
Stored in an airtight container, they stay fresh for up to 10 days at room temperature, or 3 weeks refrigerated.

2. Can I use sugar instead of jaggery?
Yes, but jaggery adds iron and a deeper flavor, making it the healthier choice for this recipe.

3. Can I make these ladoos with monk fruit sweetener?
Yes. Use our allulose + monk fruit sweetener in the same quantity as the jaggery (1:1). It has about 40 kcal per 100g. Check the monk fruit sweetener price and pack sizes: 250g for ₹465, 900g for ₹1,650 and 1.8 kg for ₹3,200.
