atta ladoo recipe | atta besasn ladoo | wheat laddu recipe with detailed photo and video recipe. a simple and healthy ladoo recipe made with wheat flour, besan flour and powdered sugar. it is healthy sweet compared to other traditional ladoo recipes, as it is made from atta or wheat flour. it is an ideal sweet recipe for the festival season, as it can be easily made and shared with friends and family.
in this recipe, i have used the combination of wheat and besan flour which gives an attractive colour and texture to this recipe. but i wanted to share the ladoo recipe with just wheat flour or atta. but maybe next time. the reason i chose the former as it is much better in terms of taste and texture. in addition, it also makes it very similar to other indian popular ladoo recipes especially like besan or plain flour one. moreover adding besan actually helps to shape these atta laddu’s more easily as it is sticky. hence i would recommend adding it but it is not mandatory.
the atta ladoo recipe is extremely simple to prepare, yet some tips and suggestions to make it more perfect. firstly, i have roasted the wheat and besan flour with ghee so that it is moist and flavoured. however, do not overdo it and be cautious so that it does not change its colour to dark. secondly, shape these ladoos when it is slightly warm and it would not be easy to shape it when it is cold. so if it turns out to be cold, microwave it for 45 secs and start shaping. lastly, the shelf life of these laddu’s improves significantly if stored in an airtight container.
