Ragi Banana Kozhukattai, a delicious and healthy snack made from finger millet and banana. It's one of the easiest snacks that you can make  for the evening time. 

I make this kozhukattai often for my kid's snack. He loves it so much. The banana adds the nice flavor to the kozhukattai. 

If you're making this kozhukattai for your little ones under 2 and you haven't introduced any sugar to them, then you can totally skip the jaggery and use a very well ripe banana alone. It still has enough sweetness and tastes awesome. I did the same before i had started the sugar for my kid. 

Flour 

In this recipe, i have used the combination of ragi and rice flour. Make sure that both the ragi and rice flour are very fine. 

Roasting the flours before making the kozhukattai enhances the flavor so i highly recommend to roast the flour for a couple of mins even if you have roasted packed flours.

Jaggery

As i said earlier, the jaggery is totally optional. You can skip it if you want very mild sweetness. 

Now, let's check out on how to make this delicious Ragi Banana Kozhukattai.
