About Peanut balls

Peanut Balls are a delightful snack made from roasted peanuts, jaggery, and cardamom, rolled into small, bite-sized orbs. Popular in Indian cuisine, particularly as a homemade treat, these energy-packed balls are rooted in traditional methods of creating simple, nourishing snacks. Peanuts provide a rich source of healthy fats, protein, and essential vitamins like B6 and E, while jaggery, a natural sweetener, adds iron and antioxidants. Cardamom enhances the flavor while offering digestive benefits. Peanut Balls are highly nutritious, delivering sustained energy, making them ideal as a post-workout snack or for curbing midday hunger. However, their calorie content can be high due to the combination of fats and natural sugars, so portion control is key for those monitoring their intake. Easy to prepare and free from preservatives, they are a wholesome choice for anyone seeking a sweet yet balanced snack rooted in tradition.
