Let us see how to make sattu powder at home and sattu porridge for kids. This sweet sattu and banana porridge makes a great energizing breakfast for adults and kids.
Sattu is a powdered form of roasted chickpeas. Black chickpeas (Kala Chana) are a rich source of protein and fiber. These are some of the super foods packed with vitamins and minerals. You can also add some other grains and nuts to make this healthier.
