But Why Choose A2 Gir Cow Ghee and Organic Jaggery Powder?
Well, the answer is simple: these two ingredients are not only natural and pure, but they also bring several health benefits that can enhance the nutritional value of your desserts. Here’s why:
A2 Gir Cow Ghee: A Superfood for Your Body
A2 Gir Cow Ghee is prepared using the ancient Bilona method, hand-churned from curd, retaining all its nutrition. Unlike regular ghee, A2 Gir Cow Ghee is easier to digest and less likely to cause inflammation or digestive discomfort. Not only that, but it is also an excellent source of healthy fats, which supports brain function, energy production, and hormone regulation. High in antioxidants and minerals, it is an ideal choice for overall health. Pure A2 Gir Cow Ghee adds a buttery taste to desserts without the negative effects of processed oils or artificial additives.
Organic Jaggery Powder: The Natural Sweetener with Benefits
Organic Jaggery Powder is a healthier alternative to refined sugar. Made with the best quality sugarcanes, jaggery retains essential vitamins and minerals like iron, magnesium, and calcium, supporting immunity, digestion, and overall health. It also has detoxifying properties, helping cleanse the liver, improve bowel movements, and prevent constipation. With its steady release of glucose, organic jaggery provides natural energy and is a low-glycemic option, making it ideal for those watching their blood sugar levels.
Organic Ragi Flour - A Nutrient-dense Superfood
Organic Ragi Flour is a nutritionally dense superfood packed with calcium, iron, fiber, and essential amino acids. Ragi is normally associated with helping build strong bones and being good for digestion. It is also easy to incorporate into daily diets because of its numerous health benefits, which will naturally lead to better blood sugar management. It helps in healthy digestion and weight management with its rich fiber content, whereas the antioxidants increase immunity and are good for glowing skin and healthy hair. A versatile, plant-based option, Organic Ragi Flour is an absolute must for increasing one's health quotient naturally.

-
Mix the Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the cooled ragi flour, cocoa powder, peanut butter, honey or Jaggery, and vanilla extract. If the mixture is too dry, you can add a tablespoon of warm water or coconut milk to help bind it.
-

Shape into Balls: Roll the mixture into small bite-sized balls. If the mixture is too sticky to handle, you can dampen your hands slightly with water.
