Banana

Use any variety of overripe bananas. They will be easy to mash and delicious for this recipe. I used Nendran Variety banana. Make sure you get around 1 cup of mashed banana.

Millet Flour

All the Millet flours go well for this recipe. I have already tried Foxtail Millet and Kodo Millet flour for this recipe. It works well. You may also use Ragi Flour.

Jaggery

Use powdered Jaggery or Country sugar for this recipe. If your banana is not that sweet increase the amount of Jaggery used. So adjust the sweetness as you like.

Cardamom Powder

Cardamom powder gives an exquisite flavor and hence it's a must-add in the recipe.

1) In a mixing bowl add in the ripe banana. Mash it well with the fork such that the banana is completely mashed.

2) To this add in the Powdered Jaggery or Country sugar.

4) Also add in a pinch of salt and a pinch of cooking soda. Adding cooking soda is optional you can skip if you do not prefer. Yet do not miss salt as it elevates the flavors.
