    There are many ways to make peanut laddus. Some call for making sugar or jaggery syrup in order to make laddu balls. I am sharing jaggery syrup peanut ladoo as well.

    In North India, whole dry roasted peanut mixed with jaggery syrup to make these ladoos especially during Sankranti time. Whereas in Maharashtra, in Pune, I make these with peanut powder and jaggery during the Chaturthi festival.
