Breads are very popular and enjoyed at my home by my kids, be it breakfast, lunch or dinner. For this reason, I am always trying new recipes for breads. I always prefer my kids to have healthy varieties of bread. When I tried out this bread for the first time, the comments I received from my kids is that ‘this is not bread…’, ‘It doesn’t taste like bread…’. Well, now things have changed, now my kids adore this healthy version of bread.
Mango almond semolina bread, as the name suggests is made mainly of rava or semolina and mango puree. This bread is very easy to make, it took only 10 minutes to get it in the oven. For eggless version of the bread, add one more tablespoon of mango pulp.
You can wrap and store the uneaten bread. This bread freezes well.
Mango almond semolina bread is hearty and is definitely my new go-to roll recipe…Enjoy!
