Updated: Oct 14, 2019

All must have witnessed fluffy cinnamon rolls but these ones are crispy versions inspired by Indian "Bhakarwadi". I like these much more than fluffy ones as these could be easy to munch on whenever you like. Make it bite-size and its good to go for your snacking game.


Cinnamon is good for winters and its heavenly smell is mesmerizing. This Diwali you could go for these beauties apart from regular Gujiyas and laddoos.
