Show more > Show Less >You can substitute sugar for jaggery in the Unniyappam recipe, but the taste will differ. Jaggery adds a unique caramel flavour and texture that sugar lacks. If you use sugar, opt for dark brown sugar for a closer taste to jaggery.
For the best Unniyappam, use ripe bananas with brown spots on the peel. These bananas are sweeter and will mash easily, creating a soft and flavourful treat.
Yes, you can make Unniyappam without a special pan by using a regular frying pan or a mini muffin tray. Grease the pan well with ghee, simply spoon the batter into the pan's hollows, and fry or bake until golden brown.
For the best flavour and texture, enjoy your Unniyappam fresh. Unlike some snacks, this traditional Indian treat made with banana batter only keeps for 2-3 days at room temperature and up to 5 days in a fridge when kept in an airtight container.
