About Banana paniyaram

Banana Paniyaram is a traditional South Indian snack, often enjoyed as a sweet treat or breakfast item. Made with ripe bananas, jaggery, rice flour, and a pinch of cardamom, it is steamed or fried into bite-sized golden-brown spheres, offering a delightful combination of natural sweetness and aromatic flavors. Originating from Tamil Nadu, this dish is typically prepared in a special paniyaram pan, which ensures an even cooking process. Banana Paniyaram is relatively healthy, as it leverages the natural sugars from ripe bananas, reducing reliance on added refined sugars. Jaggery, a nutrient-rich sugar alternative, adds iron and antioxidants to the dish. However, variations involving deep frying may increase calorie and fat content, so opting for steamed or lightly pan-cooked versions is a more heart-friendly choice. Packed with energy and flavor, Banana Paniyaram is a wholesome indulgence rooted in Indian culinary tradition.
