About Bhakri

Bhakri is a traditional Indian flatbread commonly enjoyed in Maharashtrian, Gujarati, and other regional cuisines. Made primarily from whole grains like jowar (sorghum), bajra (pearl millet), or wheat, Bhakri is dense and rustic in texture. Its preparation involves kneading flour with water and cooking it on a hot griddle until golden. Packed with complex carbohydrates, dietary fiber, and essential nutrients, Bhakri is a wholesome energy source and promotes digestive health. The choice of whole grain flour enhances its nutritional value, making it a preferred staple for those seeking heart-healthy and diabetes-friendly options. Typically served with lentils, vegetables, or chutneys, Bhakri’s simple ingredients and preparation contribute to its accessibility. However, pairing it with excessive oil or sugary accompaniments may reduce its health benefits. Overall, Bhakri is a nutrient-rich, balanced choice fitting both traditional diets and modern health-conscious lifestyles.
