Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine the mixed millet flour and whole wheat flour.
Gradually whisk in the milk until a smooth batter forms. Ensure the batter is not too thin; it should coat the back of a spoon.
Add the jaggery and mashed banana to the batter. Whisk thoroughly until everything is well combined.
Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface for each pancake.
Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip the pancakes when bubbles start to appear on the surface and the edges look set.
Serve the pancakes immediately. Top with chocolate sprinkles, if desired.

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

For extra flavor and texture, fold in a handful of chopped nuts (like walnuts or almonds) or seeds (such as sunflower or pumpkin) into the batter before cooking.
If you want to make the pancakes dairy-free, substitute milk with coconut or almond milk; both pair well with the earthy flavor of millets and the sweetness of banana and jaggery.
To enhance the natural sweetness and aroma, add a pinch of ground cardamom or cinnamon to the batter—this will give your pancakes a distinctly Indian touch reminiscent of traditional sweets.

Expert Tips

Soak the millets for at least 30 minutes before grinding to soften them and ensure a smoother batter.
Don't overmix the batter. A few lumps are okay and will result in lighter, fluffier pancakes.
Adjust the sweetness according to your preference by adding more or less jaggery or banana.

Storage Instructions

Leftover pancakes can be cooled and stored in an airtight container. Reheat them in a toaster or dry skillet.
They also make a great lunchbox snack when spread with nut butter or fruit preserves.
