LOL, I tried making them and ended up making a banana coconut mush instead! 😂
These ladoos were super easy to make and taste so delicious! A new favorite in my house!
I never cooked with cardamom before, but now I’m suasged, it’s a game changer!
What are the nuts for? No need for that! Just bananas is enough.
Used desiccated coconut instead of shredded and it worked fine. 😁
Made this for the kids and they loved it! Thanks for sharing!!
I don’t know about adding ghee. Isn’t that bad for health? I’d skip it next time.
Ghee actually has some health benefits! It’s full of good fats and vitamins. Don’t skip it; it makes the ladoos taste amazing!
Yum! But mine turned out a bit too sticky, any tips?
