NUTRIMIX RECIPES - AMRUTHAM PODI CAKE

How about a healthy cake for kids without all purpose flour/maida? Yes, here am sharing a simple tasty and healthy cake recipe with Amrutham podi. Amritham podi is a nutrimix given for babies that is nutritious which is ready to cook and distributed free of cost as a take-home ration through Anganwadi centers in Kerala. This supplement consists of wheat, soybean, Bengal gram, groundnut, jaggery in a particular ratio.  One of the best ways to include such nutrients in our kid's diet. However, this supplement is not properly consumed maybe because of its unappealing taste and unattractive appearance. But my 3 yr old kid is a big fan of this amrutham podi. I used to feed her this nutrimix in the form of porridge cooked in dates puree and milk. So i love to make innovative dishes with amrutham nutrimix which can pave way for its better use in future and thus avoid the malnutrition in kids. I think this recipe for the cake is very much helpful for those moms who are in search of amrutham nutrimix recipes other than making porridge. Here is the recipe showing how to make cake with amrutham podi / amrutham podi recipes / amrutham podi dishes/baby food ideas / homemade baby food recipes /baby snack ideas / healthy cake recipes /low sugar cake /low sugar cake recipes for toddlers /toddlers food recipes.
