I'm Savita Ayyar from Cambridge, UK. I miss my mom's appams and can't make them like that here since I neither have the special kadhai needed nor feel like deep-frying in ghee. Here is my recipe for appams that relies on muffin trays and baking. My previous recipe was Fluffy idlis.

Baked Appams

Ingredients

4 Ripe Bananas
Jaggery to taste
Freshly powdered cardamom
Rice Flour
1-2 tbsp coarsely grated Coconut/ Copra

Method:

  1. Grind the bananas and jaggery together. Pour into a mixing bowl.
  2. Blend in enough rice flour (6-8 tbsp) to make a batter with the consistency of cake batter.
  3. Fold in powdered cardamom and grated coconut.
  4. Preheat the oven to Gas Mark 5.
  5. Grease the muffin tray with ghee.
  6. Spoon in the appam batter. Sprinkle a few drops of ghee on it. Bake for 20-30 minutes.
  7. Turn the appams over to the other side, sprinkle a bit more ghee and bake for another 20 minutes till dark brown.

These are best had warm, though they taste yumm even when cold and will be raided off by 24 hrs!
