Ragi is rich in iron and calcium. Ragi is a ideal food to wean a baby. Ragi is rich in protein and fiber so it's very filling. Ragi causes constipation for few kids/babies so consult pediatrician before introducing new foods.

• If you were working mom then it is okay to make them in a big batch and store this in refrigerate.  It keeps good for more than a week.
• Adjust measurements according to your tastes. Measurements are totally up to your choice. You can increase or decrease any measurements in ingredients.
• If you already introduced all dry fruits separately and your baby doesn't get any allergies then give it above 10 months (who has teeth and knows to chew well)
• Dry fruits milk is only for baby's above 1year.
• Ladoos doesn't need any sweetener as sweet by nature.
• Sweetener for dry fruits milk is up to you. You can use any sweetener but jaggery,palm candy powder,white candy powderand brown sugar are good for babies compare to regular sugar.
• Always consult paediatrician before introducing any recipe to your baby's diet.
