I am giving you all worried moms nutritious laddoo recipes which you children will eat with no fuss and with their own hands !!! atleast my daughter who is 22 months old eats.

3 spoons of ragi flour
2 spoons of whole wheat flour
1 tps of olive oil ( good for health when eaten raw)
2 tps each of cashew nut powder, almond powder and 4 tbps groundnut powder
3tps of cornflakes and oats powder
2 tps of pure ghee
grated or crushed jaggery as per your sweet taste

pls try to put jaggery then sugar as jaggery is good for health.

you can also add some more things as you feel like raisins, small small pieces of dry dates, some more dry fruits powder.

all this should be fine powder so as children should not find lumps while eating

mix it well and you can roll them into small laddoos and not big ones so that the children will hold them in their hands. if they r not consistent to be rolled in laddoos add more ghee and jaggery . they will form into laddoos. and give 1 in morning and 1 in evening for healthy n nutritious snacks.

pls tl me how you liked my recipe.

avanti replied. hi priya

I read your recipe seems like tasty but I didn' t understand how can i take ragi, whole wheat powder , oat powder without cooking (Kaccha? You have not mentioned it in your recipe, please do reply? I have 28 months old baby and she is fussy eater. I want variety to give it in her tiffin
Priya replied. You can dry roast the Oats and then powder them. While you can directly make powder of the plain cornflakes. Ragi and whole wheat flour can be taken as it is. You can also dry roast moong dal and powder it and add to the laddoos as moong dal is also very good for health. u can further put banana powder also in this recipe. u can get it in shopping malls.

pls tl me if ur baby liked this recipe.

as it has got everything for the babies nutrition and they really taste good also.

gayatri replied. hi priya read your recipe seems like tasty but got ? as u told to use whole wheat flour , ragi flour and oat do i need to cook them as u didn' t mentioned it in your recipe,please do reply i am very axciouse to make the recipe as i have 30 month old baby and she is very poor in eating priya replied. methi powder will make it bitter so the kids may reject it as even young ladies tend not to eat the methi laddoos which are good after delivery. but i like methi laddoos and i put very slight powder of methi in the laddoos. manisha gharmalkar replied. hi r u maharashtrian.this is very nice recipe.in this u can add whole moong,black udid n also some methi seeds which will make laddu more tasteir n healthy. susmitha replied.
