For the holiday season, these vegan Diwali ladoos are a delicious treat. They are rich and flavorful, made with chickpea flour, nuts, and fragrant spices. They are great for sharing with family and friends during Diwali.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups chickpea flour besan
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 cup vegan margarine or coconut oil
• 1/4 cup chopped almonds
• 1/4 cup chopped pistachios
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
• A pinch of saffron strands

Instructions:

On low heat, roast chickpea flour besan in a dry pan until it smells good and turns golden brown

Leave to cool

Melt the coconut oil or vegan margarine in a different pan over low heat

Mix the roasted chickpea flour into the melted oil or margarine until everything is well mixed together

Take it off the heat and let it cool down a bit

Powdered sugar, chopped almonds, chopped pistachios, ground cardamom, and saffron strands should all be added to the mix

Mix everything together well

Let the mixture cool down until it's safe to work with

Use your hands to shape small amounts of the mixture into round balls, called ladoos

Mix it again and again until it's all gone

If you want, you can decorate the ladoos with more chopped nuts
