Blueberry Oats Semolina Laddoo
Blueberry oats Semolina Laddoo (Indian Sweet Snack Bites). These sweet treats are something in between a cookie and a truffle, so delicious and easy to make.
Servings: 8 servings
Calories: 67kcal
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup (35 g) blueberries
- 2 tablespoons raw granulated turbinado sugar or other equivalent sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vegan butter
- 6-7 (6 ) raw cashews broken into small pieces
- 3 tablespoons raisins
- 3 tablespoons Semolina (cream of wheat)
- 2 tablespoons Oats
- 1/4 teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) cardamom powder
- 2-3 tablespoons (2 tablespoons) water or almond milk
Instructions
- Blend and puree the blueberries with sugar and a Tablespoon of hot water till nicely pureed.
- Add in the oats and blend again to get a thick paste.
- In a pan, add the butter and heat on medium low heat till it melts.
- Add in the cashew pieces and raisins and cook for 2 minutes till cashews start to turn golden.
- Add in the semolina in the pan and roast for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, on medium low heat.
- Add in the cardamom powder and blueberry and oats puree and mix well stirring continuously.
- If the mixture doesnt come together and is too dry, then add a little water or almond milk, Add some coarsely ground oats if too runny.
- Take off the heat after 2-3 minutes of continuous stirring, when the mixture looks like a dough.
- Let it sit and cool for 5 minutes.
- Shape the mixture into small spheres or flats and serve! I got about 8 small inch rounds! Store in airtight container in the refrigerator for a few days.

February 13, 2019 at 1:11 amWhat’s the texture of the laddus supposed to be like- like a suji halwa where the grains are virtually indistinguishable or more grainy? I made this recipe with raspberries (because that’s what I had on hand), and although the mixture sticks and is easily shaped into balls, the texture is weirdly chewy, not like a halwa at all. Should I have cooked it a bit longer or added more water/milk?

February 24, 2019 at 12:41 amhmm, i am not sure why it got chewy. prob the raspberry seeds?

March 13, 2019 at 12:37 amThat might be it! It didn’t matter though, I shared them with some friends and they loved the laddoos! Next time, I will stick to the original recipe and make these with blueberries. Thanks for this delicious spin on laddoos!

January 20, 2020 at 9:33 amHi Rich, These look great! I’ve never made laddu before but have been strangely possessed to try blueberry lad (especially when I thought it was an original idea. I did think I would have to use freeze dried berries but I see you used fresh so I will reconsider. My real question is about the oats; are they just for nutrition or do the serve some other function that makes them essential to the recipe?
thanks
