About Besan laddoo

Besan Laddoo is a popular Indian sweet made from roasted besan (gram flour), ghee (clarified butter), powdered sugar, and a touch of aromatic spices like cardamom. Often garnished with nuts such as almonds or pistachios, these golden-hued treats melt in the mouth and are a festive favorite across Indian households. Originating from Indian cuisine, Besan Laddoos are rich in nutrients due to the gram flour, which is high in protein and fiber, promoting satiety and digestion. The ghee contributes essential fatty acids, while the nuts add a dose of healthy fats and micronutrients. However, the sugar content makes it calorie-dense, so moderation is key. Besan Laddoos are naturally gluten-free, making them suitable for those with gluten intolerance. They’re a delicious indulgence that blends tradition with nutrition when enjoyed responsibly.
