Ragi Banana Pancake Recipe | Finger Millet Pancakes Without Egg

Ragi pancakes are sweet flat cakes made in a pan or tawa using ragi flour, milk and are made without eggs and without sugar. They can be made savory too but then I would call them Ragi Cheela/ Dosa.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 medium banana ripe
  • 1 cup ragi flour
  • 1 cup wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • 1 teaspoon cardamom powder
  • 1.5 tablespoon ghee desi variety
  • ¾ cup milk can adjust as per flour quality
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup optional can use caramel or honey for garnishing
  • 1 tablespoon coconut milk
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

  1. Gather all the ingredients. In case you dont have banana or you dont wish to add it, you may simply add sugar. I had skipped sugar as I aimed to make it for diabetic people.
  2. Take the banana in a large bowl. Mash it with fork. If its ripened, it would be easily be mashed with two strokes.
  3. Add little milk to mashed banana and mix it really well.
  4. Add cinnamon and cardamom powder.
  5. Add Ragi Flour.
  6. Add wheat flour. It would have a texture like bread crumbs.
  7. Keep mixing and adding milk gradually.
  8. It should have a dropping consistency like a usual cheela batter (neither very thin nor very thick).
  9. Add a pinch of baking soda. Mix gently and cover it for 10-15 min.
  10. Heat a tawa and apply some oil / ghee on it. I have used a ceramic non-stick tawa. Make sure that Tawa is hot and not cold or else batter would stick to it. Once hot, make flame on simmer. Take ladle full and spread it of a size like a poori . I had a large tawa so I could spread two at one go.
  11. Cover them with a lid. Flame should be simmer.
  12. You shall notice few bubbles on the top side. That means bottom is almost done and we can reverse the pancake. Apply some ghee and flip it to cook from the other side.
  13. It would look dark brown as the ragi flour is darker in shade.
  14. Once done, gently pick them and make a stack of these pancakes.
  15. The ragi pancakes are ready.. Top them with your choice of syrup: caramel, honey or maple syrup. Enjoy !!

Notes

  • Expert Tips
  •  
  • The idea is to mix batter really well. Since we are not adding eggs, to make them soft and fluffy, we need to mix them gradually.
  • So add sugar and butter / ghee in bowl and mix them till they are creamy (If you add sugar in this recipe).
  • Since I have avoided sugar here, I had mixed banana with little ghee till it was creamy. Then add flour/ dry ingredients to it.
  • Gradually add milk or other wet ingredients and beat them really good. Initially, it would be a very thick, then little thick and finally of pouring consistency. At that point add baking soda or powder else all the air would be freed in mixing the batter.
  • Keep the batter at rest for 10-15 min before making the pancakes.
