    Notes :

    • Dry Roast the ragi flour for 5 minutes in low flame if using store bought ragi flour.
    • The final batter consistency should be slightly thick, add milk to adjust the consistency if it is too thick.
    • Use over ripe banana for best results.
    • For small babies, finely chop the walnuts or powder them in order to avoid choking.
    • Don't over mix after adding the dry ingredients, just fold them for 10-15 seconds.
    • This ragi banana muffins stays well for 4 days at room temperature and keeps good for a week if stored in refrigerator.
    • Vegetarians can replace egg with 1/2 cup of curd/yogurt.
    • You could use walnuts or any nuts of  your choice or even chocolate chips.
    • Mixing and measurements are most important for the perfect muffins.
    • The same recipe can be tried in a cake pan too, but the baking time may vary from 30-40 minutes.

          Using just ragi flour won't it make the cake/cookie dry? Just a doubt

            No, it won't be dry. As wheat flour and other liquid ingredients are added
