We are starting the BM 29th Edition today and I am going to blog about sweet treats for Kids this week. When I talk about sweets, my kids are not so keen into sweets, other than chocolate treats and cakes. And if at all they eat, it's only sweets that we make at home. Nothing of the store bought sweets for them, other than Sonpadi.So I know I will end up making cakes and chocolates when I decided to do this theme. However we were surprised when Konda loved this laddo that Amma made for us. It's a quick fix and something I end up doing with these whole grains. Makes a healthy snack as well.
Samba Broken Wheat Laddoo
Ingredients Needed:
Samba Broken Wheat - 1 cup
Sugar - 1 cup
Fresh Coconut - 1/2 cup
Ghee as required
Nuts for garnish
How to make the Laddo
Fry the wheat till it turns colour slightly. Roast the nuts and keep it aside.
Cool and powder it fine. Powder the sugar separately and take both wheat powder along with sugar, coconut, nuts in a bowl. Add melted ghee and press out balls. If the laddos don't hold it's shape, sprinkle hot milk over the mix and quickly shape out laddoos.
Notes:
Frying can be done without ghee. If you want you can add a tsp and fry.
Since milk is added, take care to store it properly.

Quick and easy recipe - just the way I like it. I know there are very few ingredients already, but what if I leave out coconut? will it still work out?
Hema says
I too made a recipe with samba sooji today and since I have some more of this sooji I too was thinking of making this laddoo for the kids delight theme. Healthy laddoo! Coconuts add a rich taste to the ladoos. Delicious evening snack!

I was wondering how you would have made these laddus and the first line of the recipe gave it away (Grinding the wheat rava part) 🙂
Lovely laddus!
Veena Theagarajan says

Foodiliciousnan says
Wonderful that Konda lived this. It is surely nice to have an alternative to chocolate based treats
Sandhya Ramakrishnan says
That is one quick ladoo recipe. Also a good way to get the healthy samba godhumai in the dessert.
Suma Gandlur says
Never tried laddus with cracked wheat though we prepare similarly with rava. Must have been yummy.
rekhas kitchen says
Actually I am tinking to make this laddu s. healthy recipe nice idea of ading coconut looks yummm..
Pavani N says
My son's the same way -- he doesn't like Indian sweets like gulab jamun etc. I'm thinking may be because I don't make them often, he's not getting used to them.
These laddoos look healthy & delicious. What is samba godhuma--is it like really coarse wheat rawa??
sushma says
A new variety of ladoo. Looks great. Will give it a try.
Pallavi Purani says
I remember making these at nani house when we were kids 🙂 GOod one Valli
Sapana Behl says
My grand ma used to make these! Looks yummy
