About Homemade aapam

Aapam, a traditional South Indian delicacy, is a soft, bowl-shaped pancake made from a fermented batter of rice and coconut milk. This light, gluten-free dish originates from Kerala and Tamil Nadu and is a staple in South Indian cuisine. Its slightly crispy edges and fluffy center make it a versatile base for both savory and sweet accompaniments like vegetable stews, chutneys, or jaggery-sweetened coconut milk. Rich in probiotics due to its fermentation process, aapam is excellent for gut health and digestion. The use of coconut milk adds a creamy texture along with essential healthy fats. However, it can be calorie-dense depending on the serving size and accompanying dishes. Typically made with minimal oil, aapam is a wholesome option when balanced with nutrient-rich pairings, offering a satisfying and nutritious meal.
