Wheat appam | Gothumai appam
Wheat appam, also known as gothumai appam, is a delectable and simple instant appam variation. Traditionally, appam is made solely with raw rice. However, in this recipe, I have substituted with whole wheat flour. Additionally, instead of cooking the appams directly in oil which is a time consuming process as we can fry only one appam at a time, I have opted to use a Paniyaram kadai. You can choose whichever method you prefer. Appam is a beloved prasadham (offering) for Lord Ganesha and Krishna so making this wheat appam a perfect choice for the upcoming Vinayagar Chaturthi or Krishna Janmashtami festival.
