Aval laddu or poha ladoo, just 3 main ingredients for this quick and easy recipe ready in 30 mins. One of the easiest ladoo recipes.
Krishna Jayanthi is only 2 days away, so are you still thinking what to make for the festival?
Are you scared of trying out the deep fried recipes like seedai, murukku and thattai?
Donβt worry, here is an easy recipe that has lord Krishnaβs favorite β Aval / Poha and ghee.
Only 3 main ingredients and the laddu is ready within 30 mins. It tastes similar to our rava ladoo except for the flavour of poha instead rava.
I made it in small quantity, perfect for small families.
It looks very similar to rava ladoo but tastes with majorly poha's flavor. If you are looking for other easy ladoo recipes, do check out my condensed milk ladoo recipe.

Notes

Thanks for the feedback π May be its not powdered finely? because the ghee measurement here is perfect to hold the shape. Also you have to heat the ghee b4 adding it and make ladoos. But I agree we have to put some pressure b4 it holds and forms a shape π

Wow super easy and tempting ladoos. I somehow failed in my attempt to make aval ladoos.(not using this recipe) Now after seeing this i know where i went wrong.

Hema
Hi. I tried this Aval Laddu. I felt Sugar quantity is too much for 1 Cup of Aval. You mentioned 2 cups of sugar. I felt 3/4 Cup to 2 Cup of sugar is sufficient. Later I added 1 more cup of Aval and adjusted. Taste is really good. Thanks for sharing the recipe. If possible check the Sugar quantity.
Raks Anand
Hi Hema, thank you so much for bringing to notice. After reading your feedback, I went back to check my old version of recipe. I sincerely apologize, it is 1/2 cup sugar π While I update the recipe in new format, somewhere it went wrong! I will be more careful in future while updating!
