Homemade Oatmeal Recipe With Almonds

oats almond ladoo

Health remains on the top of my agenda when it comes to meal planning. I started making sweets last year after joining a few food groups and learning the basics of making sweets there. Thereafter, I have been continuing with my food experiments in my efforts to make the food we savor healthier.

After having tried different kinds of sweets, I tried this super easy, quick, and healthy badam ladoo recipe that uses oats and almonds as the base. Before coming up with the final recipe, I had decided to make almond ladoos that I have made previously. While making ladoos this time, I decided to add oats to make these cute little balls healthier.







Badam Burfi Ladoo

The recipe does not disappoint, nor do these power-packed ladoos:

almond oats ladoo

1/2 cup oatmeal (powder)
1/2 cup almond powder
1/2 cup condensed milk (if you do not have, you may use 1 cup milk and mix it with 2 tbsp of milk powder and let it simmer on low flame.. stir intermittently until it reduces to half the amount) If you do not have milk powder, you can add 1 tbsp of ghee and 1 tsp of sugar to milk and let it simmer on low heat)
elaichi
Jaggery (gur) - 1 medium size (as per your taste)
