Oats laddu recipe | Oats ladoo recipe with jaggery

By swasthi , on May 27, 2019, 45 Comments, Jump to Recipe

Oats laddu recipe – Oats ladoo is one of the easy Indian sweets recipes that I love to prepare at home often. It can be prepared with sugar or jaggery and not much of ghee is needed and it is optional. They are non-sticky while you hold on and slightly chewy and taste good. They can be made absolutely fat free or vegan by eliminating the ghee. I had posted an oats burfi recipe last Diwali, so this time thought of sharing this laddu recipe too.

This recipe is a no fail one and needs no string consistency, while the burfi can become powdery or may not set well, if one goes wrong with the string consistency. Do try this healthy Easy Diwali Sweet Recipe. I have used organic brown sugar cubes this time; you can use white sugar or brown sugar or even jaggery.

      The only reason can be overcooking the mixture. You don’t need to throw it. Just blend it well and sprinkle some milk. Bind to ladoos

      You overcooked the mixture so it turned out hard. Add it to a blender and grind. The mixture should come together.

      Hi Sravya
      What kind of jaggery did you use here? I have tested this recipe only with traditional ball jaggery. It is grated and used here. If you have used store bought jaggery powder you may need to use more. The other reason can be overcooking coconut and jaggery mixture.

    Hi Swasthi,
    Was wondering if I could use Stevia powder in place of sugar/ jaggery. if yes, how can I use it as it says on the container that I can’t heat it? Could you help?

      Hi Rujuta,
      I don’t think this will work without jaggery as it is the only ingredient that binds oats and coconut.

    Hi,

    I wanted to know, if these laddoos can be stored or to be consumed immediately? If stored, outside or best to refridgerate?

      Hi Apurva
      These oats ladoos will keep good without refrigeration for about 4 to 5 days. If refrigerated then they will be good for 2 weeks.

    Hi dear.
    I made this reciepe today..much to my dismay it was a disaster.the jaggery had hardened …i switched off the gas when the jaggery was still sticky and watery as i felt it took quiet some time. The end ladoos were rock hard.pls help

      Hi Mrinal,
      The only reason for jaggery to harden is over cooking it. You mentioned that the mixture was watery still, then how did it turn hard? Just wondering. It could be the quality of jaggery. Some variety jaggery crystalizes due to over processing or the addition of sugar in them. To fix this, you may try sprinkling some hot water and break up the ladoos. Cook until warm and roll to balls.. Hope this helps

        Thanks swasthi for the prompt relpy.yes i do think its the quality of jaggery.even boiling water has not softened the ladoos 🙁
        Pls suggest attributes of good jaggery. The jaggery i purchased was swad brand..extremely popular brand in mumbai and thane.

          swad jaggery i have seen online is not pure. It is labelled as brown sugar jaggery. Always choose jaggery that is dark in color much darker than the one I used in this post. Upon boiling or cooking, jaggery never crystalizes. Hope this helps

    How to clean the impurities from the grated jaggery ? In some of the sweets ,we are adding it directly to the blender to make powdered form. In case we are making the syrup of it, we will sieve to remove the dirt.

      Hi Faridha
      Once we melt and sieve it, we have to bring it to 1 string consistency and then add the rest of the ingredients. It is a lot of work. The shelf life of such sweets is less and must be refrigerated. I take little more pain in searching for a good quality jaggery in the market. Sometimes after i buy when i come back home and check if it is not clean, then i keep them for payasam etc. Then again buy new pack.for ladoos.
      one way is to just hand pick the debris while grating. I use a fine grater to grate, this method helps. You try that, it may work out for you too. Thanks for rating the recipe

      Hello Kishor,
      Iam glad you liked them.I think using condensed milk will make the ladoos sticky. Oats are sticky by nature, may be you can try in small quantity, by skipping off sugar.Do share with us how they turned out, if you try. Thanks for your time to comment back here.

    This looks great but I can’t get fresh or frozen coconut. Can you make it with dried coconut?

      November 14, 2014

      Hi Jean,
      Thanks for the Visit. With dried coconut, you might need to use bit more water,use 3 tbsp.water. Since fresh coconut releases more moisture just a tbsp. was sufficient. Hope this helps.
