Karupatti Paniyaram/Palm Jaggery Dumplings

I first tasted Karupatti Paniyaram in Hotel Janakiram and it was yet another dish which proved that they are the best always. Until then sweet paniyaram was made with jaggery at home . This can be your snack or breakfast. I have seen many people quoting to use idly/dosa batter on 3 rd day for making paniyaram. Though it seems to be a wise option , I prefer the below recipe of mom for paniyaram. The taste definitely stands apart with this batter recipe.I shall post the recipe of kara paniyaram (spicy version) shortly.This can be given for babies above eight months. An excellent finger food for babies and yummy option for breakfast and dinner.
