Are you looking for a healthy and delicious breakfast option that will keep you energized throughout the day? Look no further than ragi banana pancakes! These pancakes are tasty and packed with the goodness of ragi (finger millet) and bananas.

Ragi flour, also known as finger millet flour, is a grain rich in fibre, protein, and essential minerals. Nutritious Rigi, when combined with bananas’ natural sweetness and nutrients, is a winning combination that’s both tasty and good for you.

Tips & Suggestions

Ripe Bananas: Ensure the bananas are ripe, as they will be sweeter and easier to mash.

Consistency: If the ragi pancake batter seems too thick, add more milk to achieve the desired consistency.

Customization: For extra flavour, feel free to add your favourite spices, such as cinnamon powder or cardamom, to the batter.

Serving Suggestions

Fresh Fruit: Serve the finger millet pancakes with fresh berries, bananas or other sliced fruits for a burst of freshness.

Nut Butter: Spread a dollop of almond or peanut butter between the ragi pancakes for added protein and flavour.

Chocolate and Honey: For a delightful treat, top the ragi pancakes with a spoonful of melted chocolate or Nutella and a drizzle of honey.
