WHAT IS PANJIRI?
Made in Babo’s Kitchen
Panjiri (also spelled Panjeeri) is a centuries-old roasted snack from the Indian subcontinent. Babo’s family recipe uses slow-roasted moong lentils instead of wheat, semolina or oats, creating a warm, nutty crunch. Enjoy it by the handful or sprinkle it over yogurt and fruit.

    "This is the kind of granola that feels just as at home sprinkled over yogurt as it does eaten on its own as a snack."
