Coconut raisins almond diabetic friendly laddu.
One more sugar free sweet recipe for diabetic and diet conscious people. And a guilt free treat for everyone. No artificial sweetener added.
I have sweetened this with raisins and almonds.
This laddu is lightly sweetened and delicious. If you want to increase the sweetness then you can add some more soaked raisins.
But remember diabetic people should take only one piece in a day not too much. Its necessary to eat a balanced diet and just moderate your intake.
These days, diabetics aren’t restricted to the dietary limitations of prior years, and eating fruits such as raisins is completely acceptable even when you’re trying to control your blood sugar levels. The key is to balance your intake of carbohydrates with fat and protein to prevent major blood glucose fluctuations.

I also love these guilt free sweets. I think these are best for diet conscious people to satisfy their sweet tooth.
