P.S.One batch i burned a bit hence some appam are dark coloured in the picture.:-S

Note:

1.Don't pour all the jaggery syrup in to the flour,add little by little and continue if needed.
2.For some crunchy effect i added some samai millet but can avoid or add rava/semoline.

3.It is not necessary to have this jack fruit preserve to make this you can even make it with fresh jack fruit.In that case just grind to coarse add to batter and make.
