About Besan ki laddu

Besan Ki Laddu is a popular Indian sweet made primarily from roasted gram flour (besan), ghee (clarified butter), and sugar, often flavored with cardamom and garnished with nuts like almonds or pistachios. This traditional dessert, originating from Indian cuisine, is often enjoyed during festivals and special occasions. It is rich in protein and fiber due to the gram flour, while ghee adds healthy fats that can provide satiety. Nuts contribute essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats. However, Besan Ki Laddu is also calorie-dense, primarily due to the added sugar and ghee, making it a treat best enjoyed in moderation. While it offers energy and nourishment, it is not recommended for frequent consumption, especially for those managing weight or blood sugar levels.
