Why This Recipe Works 

The best snacks combine texture, flavour, and balanced nutrition. 

Protein Makes Every Bite More Satisfying 

Adding Prolicious Up It increases the protein and fibre content, helping make these puff bites more filling. 

Baking Creates a Crispy Texture 

Baking gives the bites a delicious crunch without the need for deep frying. 

Fresh Chutney Adds Bold Flavour 

The combination of coriander, mint, and green chilli brings freshness that perfectly complements the crunchy base. 

Chaat Toppings Make It Irresistible 

Sweet tamarind chutney, crunchy onions, juicy pomegranate, and sev create layers of flavour and texture in every bite. 

Health Benefits 

Higher Protein for Better Satiety 

Protein helps you stay fuller for longer, making snack time more satisfying. 

Fibre Supports Digestive Health 

Whole wheat flour and Prolicious Up It contribute fibre that supports healthy digestion and balanced eating. 

Baking Uses Less Oil 

Since these puff bites are baked instead of deep-fried, they offer a lighter alternative while still delivering a crispy texture. 

Fresh Herbs Add Natural Goodness 

Coriander and mint contribute freshness, antioxidants, and vibrant flavour.

FAQs 

Can I prepare the dough in advance? 

Yes. Refrigerate the dough for a few hours before rolling and baking. 

Does Prolicious Up It change the flavour?
