Besan Ka Laddu is a traditional Indian sweet made from roasted chickpea flour (besan), ghee, sugar, cardamom, and sometimes garnished with nuts like almonds or pistachios. Originating from Indian cuisine, these laddus are prized for their rich, nutty flavor and soft texture, making them a popular treat during festivals and celebrations. Chickpea flour, the primary ingredient, is a good source of fiber, protein, and essential vitamins, while ghee provides healthy fats and a rich taste. Cardamom adds a touch of aromatic flavor and offers digestive benefits. However, the sweetness comes from added sugar, which should be consumed in moderation, especially considering the calorie content of ghee. While Besan Ka Laddu can provide energy and nutrients, it is best enjoyed occasionally as part of a balanced diet, mindful of portion sizes.
