Notes:I’m really big on healthy food and healthy living and so, it was a big issue that “deep frying” is an essential step in the making of puff-puff. The major reason for my search was to look for a way to tweak puff-puff enough to make it healthy and Dooney suggested “Baked puff muffins” and “oats and wholemeal flour puff-puff”. That was a breakthrough, guyz. Which inspired the above recipe. The “puff-puff” dough can also be placed on a waffle maker or made like a pancake with little oil to achieve a healthier version. | |
