Wheat & Banana Appam

Wheat flour appam are very easy to make.  These soft and spongy appam can be made within no time. These can be made with all purpose flour too, but to make it healthy dish I have used whole wheat flour. It make it even more healthier I have added ripe banana puree too. Just mix all the ingredients and fry them. Here I have deep fried the appam's. You can even use the Appe pan to make these delicious appam.  This recipe goes to the  week 2 and  1st day of BM 64 under the theme Wheat recipes.... Here goes the recipe....
