diet ladoo sugarfree |
Well, I have named these diet ladoos, because these are
- refined sugar-free, which is only calories - empty calories to be precise
- subtly sweet from jaggery, which is mineral rich and unrefined (I use Organic jaggery)
- slightly tangy from mineral-rich black salt
- crunchy from toasted seeds and nuts, which are loaded with iron, zinc, magnesium, calcium, and phosphorus
- kid-friendly since the ingredients aren't ground fine, but kept grainy for those nibbly bites that would instantly appeal to kids
- butterless, oil-free, and use no ghee - no saturated fat (the only fat here is the natural fat from seeds and nuts that remains locked in these yummy bites to give you plenty of benefits - toasting needs and seeds unlocks healthy oils)
- not diabetes friendly - kindly do not use this recipe for diabetics
This diet ladoo recipe is perfect as a tea-time snack, on-the-go snack for dieters and ladoo lovers alike.
