Description

For new mothers seeking a natural boost in milk production while maintaining a healthy diet, these Lactation-Boosting Laddoos are an excellent choice. Free from added sugars and honey, these laddoos harness the power of nutrient-dense ingredients known for their galactagogue properties. Rich in oats, flaxseeds, and sesame seeds, they provide essential vitamins and minerals to support lactation and overall well-being. Perfect as a wholesome snack or energy-boosting treat, these laddoos help new moms stay nourished and revitalized during their breastfeeding journey.


Ingredients

  • Oats: 30 grams
  • Dates: 20 grams (pitted, as a natural sweetener)
  • Almonds: 10 grams (finely chopped or ground)
  • Flaxseeds: 5 grams (ground)
  • Sesame Seeds: 5 grams
  • Ghee: 10 grams
  • Cardamom Powder: A pinch

Instructions

  • Prepare the Oats: Lightly toast the oats in a dry pan over medium heat until they turn golden and release a nutty aroma. Set aside.
  • Blend the Dates: Use a blender or food processor to blend the pitted dates into a smooth paste. This will act as the natural sweetener for the laddoos.
  • Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the toasted oats, date paste, chopped almonds, ground flaxseeds, sesame seeds, and cardamom powder.
  • Add Ghee: Gently melt the ghee and mix it into the mixture until everything is evenly combined and slightly sticky.
  • Shape the Laddoos: Allow the mixture to cool slightly. Then, shape it into small balls, about 20 grams each. You should be able to make about 4-5 laddoos from this mixture.
  • Store: Store the laddoos in an airtight container. They can be kept at room temperature for up to a week or refrigerated for extended freshness.
