Whole Wheat Jaggery Pancake with step by step photos - Wheat Jaggery Pancake is a vegan, easy and tasty recipe using with wheat flour, jaggery and flavored with fresh cardamom. 

I remember when we were kids, we used to annoy our mom to make something yummy for  evening snacks with tea, so she usually prepare this sweet pancake (in punjabi we call it meetha pooda) my mom used sugar in it, which is already shared in my blog, but this time I used to make it more healthy using jaggery in a pancake instead of white sugar and flavored with fresh cardamom powder.

Jaggery gives beautiful color to the pancake and cardamom gives amazing flavor. I feel jaggery and cardamom are made for each other 😍😍 I love the fragrance of the both delish ingredients.

Healthy benefits of Fresh Cardamom pods with Jaggery

Cardamom has a unique flavor and aroma that is hard to put into words. It is compellingly strong, yet delicate; sweet, yet powerful; with an almost eucalyptus freshness.

While Jaggery is a great remedy for anemia, asthma, joint pains and menstrual pains. It is a great energy booster as it provides us lots of energy !!
