Story/History of recipe
Groundnuts are consumed all over the world in many different ways. Apart from the most common ways like peanut butter, Verusenaga oil and simply roasted Verusenaga they are also included in various supplemental bars because of its nutrient content. Peanut Laddu can be a much simpler version of such bars. These crunchy and sweet candies are originally from Kovilpatti, Tamil Nadu (South India) and have been commercially available since the 1940s. Though they were part of many festival special sweets, it has now become a favourite and common household treat.

Groundnut Laddu Recipe Preparation Steps
Creating a delicious and nutritious treat has never been easier with our Groundnut Laddu recipe preparation steps. Groundnut, also known as peanuts, adds a delightful crunch and rich flavor to these energy-packed sweets. To start, gather your ingredients: roasted groundnuts, jaggery, ghee, and a sprinkle of cardamom for that aromatic touch. In the first step, blend the roasted groundnuts into a coarse powder in a food processor. Be careful not to blend too much, as you don’t want peanut butter consistency; a fine crumbly texture is ideal. Then, in a pan, heat ghee and melt jaggery until it becomes syrupy. Combine the groundnut powder with the melted jaggery and mix well to form a dough. This easy blend brings out the flavors of the ingredients, making your laddus irresistibly tasty!
Following the basic Groundnut Laddu recipe preparation steps ensures that your sweet treat is not only enjoyable but also packed with health benefits. Once you’ve combined your ingredients into a dough, it’s time to shape your laddus. Grease your palms with a little ghee, then take small portions of the dough and roll them into small balls. Make sure to press them firmly to maintain their shape. You can also roll them in grated coconut or sesame seeds for added texture and taste. Allow the laddus to cool completely before serving, as this will help them firm up. Perfect as an energy booster or sweet treat, groundnut laddu is a crowd-pleaser at festivals and gatherings. With these simple preparation steps, you can easily impress friends and family with this traditional Indian sweet that’s as rewarding to make as it is to eat!
