Instant Rava Appo/ Instant Rawa Paniyaram

In today’s day everyone loves instant recipe and I am no exeption. It was one such day when I was thinking what to make for M’s snack box and this one was one of my successful experiment.  Ever since I have got my Appe Kayli I am trying new recipes and first one Godu Appo was Super hit. I have made many varieties which i will post gradually. Rawa idli is one of our frequently made breakfast but this time I thought why not use similar recipe and make Appo/Appe/Paniyaram instead and it was a instant hit. I was really happy with the outcome and I am sure if you all try it you will be delighted too.
