Millet Brownie Balls, egg-less



 Made this ragi/ finger millet brownies, egg-less.  It came so soft that I had to make small balls with them.

Ingredients

mashed banana 1 big

ghee melted 1/4 cup

sugar 1/2 cup

cocoa pdr 3 heaped tsp

ragi flour 1/2 cup roughly

milk 1/4 cup

baking pdr 1 tsp

baking soda 1/4 tsp

walnuts and sunflower seeds

vanilla essence 1/2 tsp

salt a big pinch 

 

In a bowl mixed mashed banana , salt, baking pd, baking soda, sugar, cocoa pdr well along with melted ghee. 

I added ragi flour 3 tsp at a time, mixing well, then added more flour, milk, till I felt the batter was thinner than the normal cake batter, added nuts

spread on a microwave safe plate baked for 3.30 minutes, checked, felt it needed to be baked a little more, baked for another 45 seconds.

Cooled, removed, sad when I cut into squares, as they're sooo soft, it kept breaking, hence I rolled then into balls !
