Ingredients

  • 1 cup Jaggery
  • 1 cup Whole wheat flour or Atta
  • ¼ cup Puffed rice (Layi) or Poha (Flattened rice)
  • ¼ to ½ teaspoon Cardamom powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • Water (1 to 1.25 cups approximately)
  • Ghee , for cooking

Instructions

  • In a blender or mixer, add poha or puffed rice and blend it to smooth powder.
    ¼ cup Puffed rice
  • In a bowl, add jaggery, wheat flour, poha powder from above, cardamom powder, salt, and water little by little to form a smooth medium-thick batter. Check the video of Temple-style Appe.
    1 cup Jaggery, 1 cup Whole wheat flour, ¼ to ½ teaspoon Cardamom powder, ¼ teaspoon Salt, Water
  • Heat paniyaram pan or appe pan on medium flame. Add 1 teaspoon of ghee to each mold/hole.
    Ghee
  • Once the ghee is hot, drop batter in each hole, cover with a lid and cook until the bottom becomes golden in color. Using a spoon, flip and cook on another side until it is cooked through and the edges become crisp.
  • Repeat the process for the remaining batter.
  • For classic taste, dip each appe in ghee and enjoy.

Notes

  • To make it an authentic temple-style recipe, I have not added baking soda. If you want a little puffed-up appes, add a pinch of baking soda to the batter.
