Coconut Milk Achappam

While there are several Achappam ideas to try, this version tastes amazing with coconut milk and rice flour. The result is a crisp and sweet homemade delight.

Sweet Achappam

Here, with the coconut milk and rice flour, you need to add some sugar and black sesame seeds to bring in a subtle aroma and balanced sweetness.

Spicy Achappam

To give the Achappam ideas a spicy twist, simply infuse some crushed green cardamom powder and whole cumin seeds into the batter for a fragrant flavor.

Cinnamon Achappam

Once the lightly sweetened batter is fried, dust the cookies in cinnamon sugar. Amongst all the Achappam ideas, this one brings in warmth with every single bite.

Savory Achappam

To make this, replace sugar with crushed black pepper, salt, asafoetida, and white sesame seeds in the rice flour batter. The result is always a crunchy, savory snack.
