Instant Whole Wheat Sweet Banana Dosa (How to make banana dosa) Whole Wheat Banana Pancakes with jaggery (How to make Whole Wheat Banana Pancakes),

How to make instant whole wheat sweet banana dosa/ pancakes? It's easy and simple. All you need are some really ripe bananas, some whole wheat flour (atta), jaggery and milk. These whole wheat banana pancakes make a healthier option for kids and can be served both as a snack or as a breakfast item. Since jaggery is already added to the batter, they are naturally sweet and don't actually require any syrup while serving. You could just serve them with some freshly cut fruits. These instant whole wheat banana dosas are great when you want to make a quick snack or breakfast.

Sweet Banana Dosa ( Sweet Banana Crepes)

Sweet Banana Dosa
This is a favorite breakfast/snack item at home. I first made sweet banana dosa/crepes when I had a few over ripe bananas and wanted to try something other than the banana raita. This is similar to the popular Mangalorean recipe of "Southekai dosa" or 'Sweet Cucumber dosa'. Years ago I had experimented replacing the cucumber with mango puree and the resulting 'Sweet Mango Dosa' too had turned out really well.
Here are the ingredients for the Sweet Banana crepes:
Ingredients:(Serves 4)
  • Dosa Rice: 1 cup
  • Ripe Bananas: 2 nos.
  • Beaten rice/poha/ avalakki: 1 cup
  • Grated coconut: 3-4 tbsp
  • Jaggery: 3/4th cup 
  • Low-fat Yogurt/curd: 1/2 cup
  • Cardamom powder: a pinch
  • Salt: 1/4tsp
Method:
  1. Soak the rice and methi seeds for at least 3-4 hours.
  2. Just before grinding the batter, wash the poha and leave aside for 10-15 mins.
  3. Grind all the ingredients (except the cardamom) together with enough water to make a fine batter (test the batter for sweetness).
  4. Leave aside for 1/2-1 hour.
  5. Add the cardamom powder and mix well.
  6. Heat a non-stick pan and pour a ladle full of the batter onto it. Spread it out in a circular motion to make a dosa/ crepe.
  7. Let it cook for a couple of minutes, then add a little oil to the edges.
  8. Flip the dosa over and let it cook till done.
  9. Serve the sweet banana dosa/ crepes hot off the pan and watch them vanish.
 The sweet dosa can be eaten as such without any side or dipping sauce.

Note: Store any left over batter in the refrigerator.
