banana malpua with malai



this is a special breakfast for my husband though malpuas should be served as desserts ..........but as i make this malpua in a shallow fried version , so it is less heavy and since it resembles the western pancake so well , it is more suited to be a nice weekend breakfast.

it is made of whole wheat flour so it's healthy but it is a high calorie food so moderation is the keyword many would like to associate it with...me too.......

ingredients

whole wheat flour 1 cup
ripe or overripe bananas 2 nos.
sugar 2-3 tbsp ( optional)
milk 1/2 cup or as needed
fresh cream to serve as much you like
slivered almonds as much you like
honey to top ..as much you like
ghee to fry


procedure

mash the bananas and mix with flour and sugar to make a paste first and then add milk ...little at a time to make a batter similar to cake.

heat ghee( about 1/4 cup) in a flat bottom frying pan ( i use my jalebi kadhai) , pour a ladle ful of batter in the pan to fry....many malpuas can be fried at a time in a flat bottom pan so amke 4-5 at a time.........flip over when bubbles appear on top and fry the other side too...

when nicely browned, take out...drain and serve hot topped with fresh cream , honey and almond slivers..........

see who is licking fingers....:D:D...............simple , easy and yummy........you happy ..................family happy...
