Dry Fruits Laddu

Dry fruits laddu step-by-step recipe with photos.

Nuts, dates, raisins, and absolutely no sugar! Can a snack get this good? Of course yes!

These little wonder bites can be put together in minutes and stay fresh for a week when stored in an airtight container. I don’t have to even mention how healthy the ingredients that go into them are. They taste absolutely divine.

As a child, I remember eating these dry fruit laddu mostly during festivals. They were one of my favourites. Now I make and store them regularly. These are my husband’s favourite snacks! My daughter never says No to them and loves munching on them…

To make these laddus, I blitz pitted dates in the food processor. I saute poppy seeds and nuts in a pan with some ghee\. I mix in the pitted dates and combine until it comes together. The dates bind the entire mixture together. While the mixture is still hot, I make small balls out of it. Done. Simple, healthy snack ready in minutes.

PS: In case you are wondering, in India, dry fruits means nuts (cashew, almonds, pistachio, walnuts, etc. but excludes peanuts) along with dried fruits (dates, raisins, figs, apricot, etc.).
