Banana Appam is a sweet snack, which is soft and has a crispy outside. Preparation is easy. Can store them for a week. Banana appam is a healthy snack. Banana and jaggery has high nutritional value.
Appams can be done in 2 ways either deep fried or like paniyaram. The recipe i have shown here is deep fried banana appams. I will also post the other paniyaram type banana appam as another post.
Ingredients:
Ripe banana - 3 big
Rice flour - 1 cup
Jaggery - 100 gms or 3/4 cup
Cardamon powder - 1 tsp
Cashew - 10 nos
Baking soda - pinch
Ghee - 2 tsp
oil for frying
Instructions:
1) Cut jaggery into small cubes. Heat a pan and melt jaggery with 2 or 3 tbsp water.
2) Do not let it boil. Once melt keep it aside.
3) In a bowl mash ripe bananas. Make sure it has no lumps.
4) To the mashed banana add rice flour, cardamon powder and baking soda.
5) In a pan heat ghee. Add cashew and once it turns golden brown add it to the mashed banana mixture.
6) Now add melted jaggery to the banana mixture.
7) The consistency should be slightly thick than idly/dosa batter.
8) Heat oil in a frying pan. Oil should be medium heat throughout frying.
9) Take a tablespoon or small ladle full of batter and pour it directly in oil keeping the ladle 2 or 3 inch above oil.
10) Initially the batter settles down to the pan and then it floats. Make another appam once the previous one floats. Make 3 - 4 appam at a time.
11) Turn over appam with a wooden stick or skewer. Cook till golden brown.
12) Appams are crispier when hot. Serve hot and enjoy.
Notes:
1) Adjust the jaggery level according to your taste.
2) Instead of mashing banana, it can also be done in blender to get a smooth paste.
2) This recipe yields 30 - 35 appams. Store it in a air tight container.
3) Adding baking soda makes appam soft. You can also skip if you not have.
4) With cashew you can also add other nuts. Add either as powder or chopped.
