Appam..My favorite breakfast to try..Till few months ago i have been using my mom’s appam batter and it has never failed on me. But later i started experimenting on appam and loved so many version of making them. I have shared all of them in this blog too..I have posted my easy appam with just three ingredients and my coconut milk appam which has yeast in them..
So give this recipe a try and let me know how it turned out for you..
