    Wheat Halwa recipe

    Easy Atta Halwa/Wheat flour halwa with jaggery -  yummy dessert made with whole wheat flour, ghee, jaggery syrup and nuts for toddlers, kids and for the whole family. This whole wheat halwa is a very delicious healthy halwa with the goodness of jaggery and can be given to toddlers after one year. The recipe is so simple with less ingredients and takes only 30 mins altogether. I have used the homemade jaggery syrup which I shared in my previous post, even jaggery powder works fine. But belive me, the taste of this halwa is no lesser than the ones made with sugar. Check the similar recipe of whole wheat halwa with apples for babies here.

    Now Let's check how to make this easy atta halwa recipe for toddlers and kids.

    Notes :

    • Jaggery syrup or jaggery water should be runny and make sure its not too thick.
    • Do the whole process in low medium flame or low flame in order to avoid burning in the bottom.
    • Make sure to roast the wheat flour well otherwise the halwa may have raw smell.
    • You can replace jaggery with same amount of sugar.
    • You can use any nuts of your choice for garnishing,
    • Always check with your pediatrician before introducing any new food.
    • Don't prefer whole nuts for small babies, instead add powdered nuts.
