Notes

Can I use unripe bananas for this? Unripe bananas or raw bananas won’t be sweet and do not work for this recipe. Over ripe bananas are best, or at least use bananas that are perfectly ripe.
I don’t eat eggs. What can I use instead? Egg gives this dosa their structure, but you can use a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flax seeds + 3 tablespoon water) as an alternative. You can also skip the egg completely. I’ve done this and it works. Just make sure to rest the batter for 10-15 minutes before using.
Whole wheat flour can be substituted in a 1:1 ratio with all-purpose flour or a gluten-free flour
