Instructions

Dry Roasting and Crushing

Dry roast the cornflakes and oats in a non-stick pan or kadai over medium heat until lightly golden and fragrant. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
Once cool, roughly crush the cornflakes and oats using a rolling pin or food processor. Do not pulverize them into a powder.

Combining Ingredients

In the same pan, melt the jaggery over low heat until it becomes a smooth liquid. Stir continuously to prevent burning.
Add the crushed cornflakes and oats to the melted jaggery. Stir well to combine.
Add the melted butter and maple syrup (if using). Mix until everything is evenly coated.
Stir in the chopped cashews and any added blueberries or raisins.

Shaping the Ladoos

Remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly. The mixture should be pliable but not too hot to handle.
Using your hands, shape the mixture into small ladoos (balls).
Let the ladoos cool completely before serving. They will firm up as they cool.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Ladoos

For a sweeter ladoo, increase the amount of maple syrup or jaggery to your liking.
If the mixture is too dry and difficult to shape, add a teaspoon of milk or water at a time until it reaches a desired consistency.
For extra crunch, add some chopped nuts like almonds or pistachios along with the cashews.
Store the ladoos in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or in the refrigerator for longer storage.
