Instant Wheat Flour Sweet Appam

Instant Wheat Flour Sweet Appam recipe without sugar or jaggery – step-by-step photos! This is one of my favorite snack recipes. I made a few changes to the traditional appam recipe and I felt like sharing it to everyone, so that you can make a special treat for your families during festivals. I added dates instead of jaggery to give some extra fibre for a healthy twist. But you can also add 1/2 cup powdered Jaggery instead. These sweet and soft textured appams will definitely give a treat for your taste buds! And also, it is very quick and easy to prepare. Instead of frying the appams in the oil, you can also make them in the paniyaram pan. So friends, try this out and share your comments!
