It is tasty, healthy and homemade which is great for kids and toddlers. For sweetness I added palm sugar in this, you can use sugar as well. And the main thing is, don't over grind after you add badam, else it will turn into a paste.
I hope you will give this a try and not only your baby, you too can enjoy this healthy and tasty one.
